Proverbs 10:19-21

International Standard Version

¹⁹ Transgression is at work where people talk too much,
    but anyone who holds his tongue is prudent.
²⁰ What the righteous person says^[a] is like precious silver;
    the thoughts of the wicked are compared to small things.
²¹ What the righteous person says^[b] nourishes many,
    but fools die because they lack discerning^[c] hearts.
