Proverbs 21:23

He watching his mouth and his tongue watches his soul from straits.

In the transgression of the lips is the snare of evil: and the just one shall come forth out of straits.

He guarding his mouth, watched his soul: he opening wide his lips, destruction to him.

Death and life in the hand of the tongue: and they loving it shall eat its fruit

In the multitude of words transgression shall not cease: and he withholding his lips is prudent

He withholding his words will shew knowledge: I man of understanding is a cool spirit

If any among you seem to be religious, bridling not his tongue, but deceiving his heart, the religion of this one vain.

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