15 By long forbearing is a ruler persuaded, and a soft tongue breaketh the bone.
3 May the LORD cut off all flattering lips, the tongue that speaketh proud things!
4 Who have said: 'Our tongue will we make mighty; our lips are with us: who is lord over us?'
1 I said: 'I will take heed to my ways, that I sin not with my tongue; I will keep a curb upon my mouth, while the wicked is before me.'
28 Even a fool, when he holdeth his peace, is counted wise; and he that shutteth his lips is esteemed as a man of understanding.
12 Who is the man that desireth life, and loveth days, that he may see good therein?
13 Keep thy tongue from evil, and thy lips from speaking guile.
9 Destroy, O Lord, and divide their tongue; for I have seen violence and strife in the city.
2 O LORD, deliver my soul from lying lips, from a deceitful tongue.
4 For there is not a word in my tongue, but, lo, O LORD, Thou knowest it altogether.
19 The lip of truth shall be established for ever; but a lying tongue is but for a moment.
21 Death and life are in the power of the tongue; and they that indulge it shall eat the fruit thereof.
28 And my tongue shall speak of Thy righteousness, and of Thy praise all the day.
19 In the multitude of words there wanteth not transgression; but he that refraineth his lips is wise.
5 And the LORD came down to see the city and the tower, which the children of men builded.
6 And the LORD said: 'Behold, they are one people, and they have all one language; and this is what they begin to do; and now nothing will be withholden from them, which they purpose to do.
7 Come, let us go down, and there confound their language, that they may not understand one another's speech.'
8 So the LORD scattered them abroad from thence upon the face of all the earth; and they left off to build the city.
9 Therefore was the name of it called Babel; because the LORD did there confound the language of all the earth; and from thence did the LORD scatter them abroad upon the face of all the earth.
18 There is that speaketh like the piercings of a sword; but the tongue of the wise is health.
30 The mouth of the righteous uttereth wisdom, and his tongue speaketh justice.
31 The law of his God is in his heart; none of his steps slide.
