28 A false man soweth contention; and a talebearer separateth very friends.
9 With his mouth a hypocrite destroyeth his neighbour; but through knowledge are the righteous delivered.
29 Let no corrupt word go out of your mouth, but if {there be} any good one for needful edification, that it may give grace to those that hear {it}.
18 He that covereth hatred hath lying lips, and he that sendeth forth a slander is a fool.
11 Blessed are ye when they may reproach and persecute you, and say every wicked thing against you, lying, for my sake.
2 He that walketh uprightly, and worketh righteousness, and speaketh the truth from his heart.
3 {He that} slandereth not with his tongue, doeth not evil to his companion, nor taketh up a reproach against his neighbour;
13 He that goeth about talebearing revealeth secrets; but he that is of a faithful spirit concealeth the matter.
