Proverbs 10:18-20
Complete Jewish Bible
18 He who covers up hate has lips that lie,
and anyone who slanders is a fool.
19 When words are many, sin is not lacking;
so he who controls his speech is wise.
20 The tongue of the righteous is like pure silver,
but the mind of the wicked is worth little.
Proverbs 10:18-20
New International Version
18 Whoever conceals hatred with lying lips(A)
and spreads slander is a fool.
19 Sin is not ended by multiplying words,
but the prudent hold their tongues.(B)
20 The tongue of the righteous is choice silver,
but the heart of the wicked is of little value.
