11 Can both fresh water and salt water flow from the same spring?
12 My brothers and sisters, can a fig tree bear olives, or a grapevine bear figs? Neither can a salt spring produce fresh water.
4 Before a word is on my tongue you, LORD, know it completely.
28 Even fools are thought wise if they keep silent, and discerning if they hold their tongues.
26 Those who consider themselves religious and yet do not keep a tight rein on their tongues deceive themselves, and their religion is worthless.

8 So the LORD scattered them from there over all the earth, and they stopped building the city.
9 That is why it was called Babel "—because there the LORD confused the language of the whole world. From there the LORD scattered them over the face of the whole earth.
