But I say unto you, That every idle word that men shall speak, they shall give account thereof in the day of judgment . Death and life are in the power of the tongue and they that love it shall eat the fruit thereof . Whoso keepeth his mouth and his tongue keepeth his soul from troubles.. . If any man offend not in word, the same is a perfect man, and able also to bridle the whole body . There is that speaketh like the piercings of a sword but the tongue of the wise is health . He that hath a froward heart findeth no good and he that hath a perverse tongue falleth into mischief . The getting of treasures by a lying tongue is a vanity tossed to and fro of them that seek death . The lip of truth shall be established for ever but a lying tongue is but for a moment . The tongue of the wise useth knowledge aright but the mouth of fools poureth out foolishness . By long forbearing is a prince persuaded , and a soft tongue breaketh the bone. I said , I will take heed to my ways , that I sin not with my tongue : I will keep my mouth with a bridle , while the wicked is before me. My tongue shall speak of thy word: for all thy commandments are righteousness . My tongue also shall talk of thy righteousness all the day long..
