Proverbs 10:18-20
Amplified Bible

18 
He who hides hatred has lying lips,
And he who spreads slander is a fool.(A)
19 
When there are many words, transgression and offense are unavoidable,
But he who controls his lips and keeps thoughtful silence is wise.
20 
The tongue of the righteous is like precious silver (greatly valued);
The heart of the wicked is worth little.
