Proverbs 21:23

Whoever keepeth his mouth and his tongue keepeth his soul from troubles.

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

He that keepeth his mouth keepeth his life: but he that openeth 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 of it.

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

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

If any man among you seemeth to be religious, and bridleth not his tongue, but deceiveth his own heart, this man's religion is vain.

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