Some wound as they speak, like swords, but the tongues of the wise heal.

A perverse man spreads mischief, and will kindle a torch of deceit with mischief, and he separates friends.

With much wood fire increases, but where there is not a double-minded man, strife ceases.

The words of a talebearer are soft; but they strike even to the inmost parts of the bowels.

You shall not walk deceitfully among your people; you shall not rise up against the blood of your neighbor: I am the Lord your God.

your tongue has devised unrighteousness; like a sharpened razor you have worked deceit.

who have sharpened their tongues as a sword; they have bent their bow maliciously;

to shoot in secret at the blameless; they will shoot him suddenly, and will not fear.
