Proverbs 21:23

He who keeps his mouth and his tongue keeps his soul from troubles.

A wicked man is snared by the transgression of [his] lips, but the righteous shall come out of trouble.

He who guards his mouth keeps his life. He who opens wide his lips shall have destruction.

Death and life are in the power of the tongue, and those who love it shall eat the fruit of it.

Transgression is not lacking in the multitude of words, but he who refrains his lips does wisely.

He who spares his words has knowledge, and he who is of a cool spirit is a man of understanding.

If any man among you seems to be religious, not bridling his tongue but deceiving his heart, this man's religion is futile.

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