Proverbs 13:3

Treasury of Scripture Knowledge

He that keepeth his mouth keepeth his life: but he that openeth wide his lips shall have destruction.

In the multitude of words there wanteth not transgression; But he that refraineth his lips doeth wisely.

In the transgression of the lips is a snare to the evil man; But the righteous shall come out of trouble.

Whoso keepeth his mouth and his tongue Keepeth his soul from troubles.

I said, I will take heed to my ways, That I sin not with my tongue: I will keep my mouth with a bridle, While the wicked is before me.

And I say unto you, that every idle word that men shall speak, they shall give account thereof in the day of judgment.

If any man thinketh himself to be religious, while he bridleth not his tongue but deceiveth his heart, this man's religion is vain.

For in many things we all stumble. If any stumbleth not in word, the same is a perfect man, able to bridle the whole body also.
