But in the multitude of counsellors they are established.
19 In the multitude of words there wanteth not transgression;
But he that refraineth his lips doeth wisely.
15 And if thy brother sin against thee, go, show him his fault between thee and him alone: if he hear thee, thou hast gained thy brother.
13 He that goeth about as a tale-bearer revealeth secrets;
But he that is of a faithful spirit concealeth a matter.

23 A man hath joy in the answer of his mouth;
And a word in due season, how good is it!

28 Even a fool, when he holdeth his peace, is counted wise;
When he shutteth his lips, he is esteemed as prudent.

In the cause of all such as are left desolate.
19 Ye know this, my beloved brethren. But let every man be swift to hear, slow to speak, slow to wrath:
8 My mouth shall be filled with thy praise,
And with thy honor all the day.
26 And in like manner the Spirit also helpeth our infirmity: for we know not how to pray as we ought; but the Spirit himself maketh intercession for us with groanings which cannot be uttered;
1 A soft answer turneth away wrath;
But a grievous word stirreth up anger.
29 Let no corrupt speech proceed out of your mouth, but such as is good for edifying as the need may be, that it may give grace to them that hear.
