'Words' in the Bible

The words of the Teacher, the son of David, king in Jerusalem.

Do not be rash with your mouth, and do not let your heart be quick to utter a word before God. For God is in heaven, and you [are] on earth; therefore, let your words be few.

For a dream comes with many cares, and the voice of a fool with many words.

Do not let your mouth lead your flesh into sin, and do not tell the messenger that it [was] a mistake. Why anger God at your words, so that he destroys the work of your hands?

For with many dreams [come] vanities and numerous words. Therefore, fear God!

{Increasing words only multiplies futility}, how does that profit anyone?

So I concluded that wisdom [is] better than might, yet the wisdom of the poor is despised, and his words are not heard.

The words of the wise are heard in peace [more] than the shouting of a ruler [is heard] among the fools.

The wise man [wins] favor by the words of his mouth, but the fool is devoured by his own lips.

Do not curse the king even in your thoughts, and do not curse the rich even in your own bedroom, for a bird of the sky may carry your voice; a winged messenger may repeat your words.

The Teacher sought to find delightful words, and he wrote what is upright--truthful words.

The words of the wise [are] like cattle goads; the collections of the sages [are] like pricks inflicted by one shepherd.
