Thou shalt not go up and down as a tale-bearer among thy people; neither shalt thou stand against the blood of thy neighbor; I am the LORD.

And I will come down and talk with thee there: and I will take of the spirit which is upon thee, and will put it upon them; and they shall bear the burden of the people with thee, that thou mayest not bear it thyself alone.

(The Emims dwelt in it in times past, a people great, and many, and tall as the Anakims;

A people great, and many, and tall as the Anakims; but the LORD destroyed them before them; and they succeeded them, and dwelt in their stead:

And ye said, Behold, the LORD our God hath shown us his glory and his greatness, and we have heard his voice from the midst of the fire: we have seen this day that God doth talk with man, and he liveth.

And thou shalt teach them diligently to thy children, and shalt talk of them when thou sittest in thy house, and when thou walkest by the way, and when thou liest down, and when thou risest up.

A people great and tall, the children of the Anakims, whom thou knowest, and of whom thou hast heard it said, Who can stand before the children of Anak!

Talk no more so exceeding proudly; let not arrogance come out of your mouth: for the LORD is a God of knowledge, and by him actions are weighed.

Then said Eliakim the son of Hilkiah, and Shebna and Joah, to Rab-shakeh, Speak, I pray thee, to thy servants in the Syrian language; for we understand it: and talk not with us in the Jews language in the ears of the people that are on the wall.

By thy messengers thou hast reproached the Lord, and hast said, With the multitude of my chariots I am come up to the hight of the mountains, to the sides of Lebanon, and will cut down its tall cedar trees, and its choice fir trees: and I will enter into the lodgings of his borders, and into the forest of his Carmel.

Sing to him, sing psalms to him, talk ye of all his wonderous works.

Should not the multitude of words be answered? and should a man full of talk be justified?

Will ye speak wickedly for God? and talk deceitfully for him?

Should he reason with unprofitable talk? or with speeches with which he can do no good?

For they persecute him whom thou hast smitten; and they talk to the grief of those whom thou hast wounded.

My tongue also shall talk of thy righteousness all the day long: for they are confounded, for they are brought to shame, that seek my hurt.

I will meditate also of all thy work, and talk of thy doings.

For all our days are passed away in thy wrath: we spend our years, as a tale that is told.

Sing to him, sing psalms to him: talk ye of all his wondrous works.

Make me to understand the way of thy precepts: so shall I talk of thy wondrous works.

They shall speak of the glory of thy kingdom, and talk of thy power;

When thou goest, it shall lead thee; when thou sleepest, it shall keep thee; and when thou awakest, it shall talk with thee.

A tale-bearer revealeth secrets: but he that is of a faithful spirit concealeth the matter.

In all labor there is profit: but the talk of the lips tendeth only to penury.

The words of a tale-bearer are as wounds, and they go down into the innermost parts of the belly.

He that goeth about as a tale-bearer revealeth secrets; therefore meddle not with him that flattereth with his lips.

For their heart studieth destruction, and their lips talk of mischief.

Where no wood is, there the fire goeth out: so where there is no tale-bearer, the strife ceaseth.

The words of a tale-bearer are as wounds, and they go down into the innermost parts of the belly.

The beginning of the words of his mouth is foolishness: and the end of his talk is mischievous madness.

By thy servants hast thou reproached the Lord, and hast said, By the multitude of my chariots have I come up to the hight of the mountains, to the sides of Lebanon; and I will cut down its tall cedars, and its choice fir-trees: and I will enter into the hight of its border, and the forest of its Carmel.

And the hand of the LORD was there upon me; and he said to me, Arise, go forth into the plain, and I will there talk with thee.

For how can the servant of this my lord talk with this my lord? for as for me, immediately there remained no strength in me, neither is there breath left in me.
