Sin is not ended by multiplying words, but the prudent hold their tongues.

Sin is not ended by using many words. But those who are wise control their tongues.

When words are many, transgression is not lacking, but whoever restrains his lips is prudent.

Too much talk leads to sin. Be sensible and keep your mouth shut.

我們在許多的事上都有過錯，假如有人在言語上沒有過錯，他就是完全的人，也能夠控制全身。

我親愛的弟兄們，你們要知道，人人都應該快快地聽，慢慢地說，慢一點動怒；

我曾說：“我要謹慎我的行為，不讓我的舌頭犯罪；惡人在我面前的時候，我總要用罩子約束我的嘴。”

有知識的約束自己的言語；聰明人心平氣和。愚妄人默不作聲，也算是智慧；閉口不言，也算是聰明。

愚昧人的話開頭是愚昧，結尾是邪惡狂妄。愚昧人多言多語。人不知道將來會有甚麼事，誰能告訴他死後會發生甚麼事呢？

掛慮多就令人作夢，言語多就顯出愚昧。
