Proverbs 10:10

10 Whoever ^awinks the eye causes trouble,
and a babbling fool will come to ruin.

13 An evil man is ensnared ^bby the transgression of his lips,
^cbut the righteous escapes from trouble.

3 ^dWhoever guards his mouth preserves his life;
^ehe who opens wide his lips ^fcomes to ruin.

23 In all toil there is profit,
but mere talk ^gtends only to poverty.
