Proverbs 10:18-20

Amplified Bible, Classic Edition

¹⁸ He who hides hatred is of lying lips, and he who utters slander is a [self-confident] fool.^(A)

¹⁹ In a multitude of words transgression is not lacking, but he who restrains his lips is prudent.

²⁰ The tongues of those who are upright and in right standing with God are as choice silver; the minds of those who are wicked and out of harmony with God are of little value.
