Whatever you have said in the dark will be heard in the light, and whatever you whispered in private will be announced from the rooftops.
Don't talk badly about the king, not even in your thoughts. Don't talk badly about leaders, even in the privacy of your bedroom. A bird may hear what you say and fly away to tell them.
What I tell you here in the dark, declare when it's light, and what you hear whispered in your ear, shout from the rooftops.
I tell you, people will have to account for every careless thing they say on the Day of Judgment.
Anyone who is on the housetop must not go down and fetch what's in the house.
