for they shall be a garland of grace unto thy head, and chains about thy neck.

Let not loving-kindness and truth forsake thee; bind them about thy neck, write them upon the tablet of thy heart:

A man of Belial, a wicked person, is he that goeth about with a perverse mouth;

bind them continually upon thy heart, tie them about thy neck:

He that goeth about talebearing revealeth secrets; but he that is of a faithful spirit concealeth the matter.

He that hath a perverse heart findeth no good; and he that shifteth about with his tongue falleth into evil.

He that goeth about talebearing revealeth secrets; therefore meddle not with him that openeth his lips.

As the sparrow for flitting about, as the swallow for flying, so a curse undeserved shall not come.

Speak not too much about a servant to his master, lest he curse thee, and thou be held guilty.
