The north wind driveth away the rain, even so doth an earnest sober countenance a backbiter's tongue.

Who so privily slandereth his neighbour, him will I destroy. Whoso hath also a proud look and high stomach, I will not suffer him.

Gold is brought out of the North, but the praise and honour of God's fear cometh from God himself.

He that hath used no deceit in his tongue, nor done evil to his neighbour, and hath not slandered his neighbours.

Where no wood is, there the fire goeth out; and where the backbiter is taken away, there the strife ceaseth.

backbiters, haters of God, doers of wrong, proud, boasters, bringers-up of evil things, disobedient to fathers and mothers,

For I fear, lest it come to pass, that when I come I shall not find you such as I would: and I shall be found unto you such as I would not. I fear lest there be found among you debate, envying, wrath, strife, backbitings, whisperings, swellings, and discord.
