Proverbs 10:19-21

Evangelical Heritage Version

¹⁹ When there are many words, sin never stops,^[a]
but a person who restrains his lips acts wisely.
²⁰ The tongue of a righteous person is fine silver.
The heart of a wicked person has little value.
²¹ The lips of a righteous person shepherd many,
but stubborn fools die for lack of sense.
