Proverbs 21:23

Whoever 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 come out of trouble.

He who keeps his mouth keeps his life; he who opens his lips wide, it is ruin to him.

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

In the multitude of words, sin is not lacking; but he who holds back his lips is wise.

He who has knowledge uses few words; a man of understanding is of an excellent spirit.

If anyone thinks to be religious among you, yet does not bridle his tongue, but deceives his own heart, this one's religion is vain.

For in many things we all offend. If anyone does not offend in word, the same is a full-grown man, able also to bridle the whole body.
