Psalms 34:12-16
Who is someone who desires life, and loves many days, that he may see good?Keep your tongue from evil, and your lips from speaking lies.Depart from evil, and do good. Seek peace, and pursue it.Yahweh’s eyes are toward the righteous. His ears listen to their cry.Yahweh’s face is against those who do evil, to cut off their memory from the earth.

James 3:1-10
Let not many of you be teachers, my brothers, knowing that we will receive heavier judgment.For we all stumble in many things. Anyone who doesn’t stumble in word is a perfect person, able to bridle the whole body also.Indeed, we put bits into the horses’ mouths so that they may obey us, and we guide their whole body.Behold, the ships also, though they are so big and are driven by fierce winds, are yet guided by a very small rudder, wherever the pilot desires.So the tongue is also a little member, and boasts great things. See how a small fire can spread to a large forest!And the tongue is a fire. The world of iniquity among our members is the tongue, which defiles the whole body, and sets on fire the course of nature, and is set on fire by Gehenna.For every kind of animal, bird, creeping thing, and sea creature, is tamed, and has been tamed by mankind;but nobody can tame the tongue. It is a restless evil, full of deadly poison.With it we bless our God and Father, and with it we curse men who are made in the image of God.Out of the same mouth comes blessing and cursing. My brothers, these things ought not to be so.
