The words of a whisperer are as dainty morsels, and they go down into the innermost parts.
He who goes about as a tale-bearer reveals secrets. Therefore do not associate with him who opens wide his lips.
Slanderous men have been in thee to shed blood, and in thee they have eaten upon the mountains. In the midst of thee they have committed lewdness.
Thou shall not go up and down as a talebearer among thy people, neither shall thou stand against the blood of thy neighbor. I am LORD.
