Proverbs 10:18-20
Living Bible
18 To hide hatred is to be a liar; to slander is to be a fool.
19 Don’t talk so much. You keep putting your foot in your mouth. Be sensible and turn off the flow!
20 When a good man speaks, he is worth listening to, but the words of fools are a dime a dozen.

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.
