'Speech' in the Bible

Did you intend your words to reprove, even though the speech of a desperate person is just wind?

The ear scrutinizes speech just as the palate tastes food."

Should he engage in unprofitable argument, or give a speech that benefits no one?

Because your sin dictates your speech, you have chosen the language of the crafty.

Let him not trust in a worthless speech. He leads only himself astray, for emptiness will be his reward.

"Look! I have waited to hear your speech, so I listened to your insights while you searched for the right words to say.
