He that guardeth his mouth keepeth his life. Whoso keepeth his mouth and his tongue keepeth his soul from troubles. A fool's mouth is his destruction, and his lips are the snare of his soul. There is more hope of a fool than of him. Page 71 7.
Pleasant words are as a honeycomb, sweet to the soul, and health to the bones.
The lips of the wise shall preserve them. He that would love life, and see good days, let him refrain his tongue from evil, and his lips that they speak no guile. Keep thy tongue from evil, and thy lips from speaking guile. Every idle word that men shall speak, they shall give account thereof in the day of judgment.
