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.

When there are many words, sin is unavoidable, but the one who controls his lips is prudent.

When there are many words, wrongdoing is unavoidable, But one who restrains his lips is wise.

In the multitude of words there wanteth not transgression; But he that refraineth his lips doeth wisely.

In the multitude of words there is no lack of disobedience, but he who restrains his lips does wisely.

For we all stumble in many things. If anyone does not stumble in word, he is a perfect man, able also to bridle the whole body.

So then, my beloved brethren, let every man be swift to hear, slow to speak, slow to wrath;

I said,“ I will guard my ways, Lest I sin with my tongue; I will restrain my mouth with a muzzle, While the wicked are before me.”

He who has knowledge spares his words, And a man of understanding is of a calm spirit.Even a fool is counted wise when he holds his peace; When he shuts his lips, he is considered perceptive.

The words of his mouth begin with foolishness, And the end of his talk is raving madness.A fool also multiplies words. No man knows what is to be; Who can tell him what will be after him?

For a dream comes through much activity, And a fool’s voice is known by his many words.
