Proverbs 21:23

Whosoever keeps his mouth and his tongue keeps his soul from troubles.

The wicked is snared by the transgression of his lips: but the just shall escape from trouble.

He that keeps his mouth keeps his life: but he that opens wide his lips shall have destruction.

Death and life are in the power of the tongue: and they that love it shall eat the fruit thereof.

In the multitude of words there lacks not sin: but he that refrains his lips is wise.

He that has knowledge spares his words: and a man of understanding is of an excellent spirit.

If any man among you seems to be religious, and bridles not his tongue, but deceives his own heart, this man's religion is vain.

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