Sin is not ended by multiplying words, but the prudent hold their tongues.
In the multitude of words there wanteth not sin: But he that refraineth his lips is wise.
In a multitude of words transgression is not lacking, but he who restrains his lips is prudent.
In the multitude of words there wanteth not transgression; But he that refraineth his lips doeth wisely.
With lots of words comes wrongdoing, but the wise restrain their lips.
In a multitude of speaking, sin will not be lacking. But whoever tempers his lips is most prudent.
