Proverbs 10:18-20
Modern English Version
18 He who hides hatred has lying lips,
and he who spreads slander is a fool.
19 In the multitude of words sin is not lacking,
but he who restrains his lips is wise.
20 The tongue of the just is as choice silver;
the heart 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.
