H5341Keep[H8798] H3956thy tongueH7451from evilH8193, and thy lipsH1696from speaking[H8763] H4820guile.
H7896Set[H8798] H8108a watchH3068, O LORDH6310, before my mouthH5341; keep[H8798] H1817the doorH8193of my lips.
H8104Whoso keepeth[H8802] H6310his mouthH3956and his tongueH8104keepeth[H8802] H5315his soulH6869from troubles.
G3739WhoG4160did[G5656] G3756noG266sinG3761, neitherG1388was guileG2147found[G5681] G1722inG846hisG4750mouth:
G1536If any manG1722amongG5213youG1380seem[G5719] G1511to be[G5750] G2357religiousG5468, and bridleth[G5723] G3361notG846hisG1100tongueG235, butG538deceiveth[G5723] G846his ownG2588heartG5127, this man'sG2356religionG3152is vain.
G5574Lie[G5732] G3361notG1519one to anotherG240 G554, seeing that ye have put off[G5666] G3820the oldG444manG4862withG846hisG4234deeds;
G5620WhereforeG3450, myG27belovedG80brethrenG2077, letG3956everyG444manG2077be[G5749] G5036swiftG1519toG191hear[G5658] G1021, slowG1519toG2980speak[G5658] G1021, slowG1519toG3709wrath:
G1063ForG4183in many thingsG4417we offend[G5719] G537allG1536. If any manG4417offend[G5719] G3756notG1722inG3056wordG3778, the sameG5046is a perfectG435manG1415, and ableG2532alsoG5468to bridle[G5658] G3650the wholeG4983body.
H5341He that keepeth[H8802] H6310his mouthH8104keepeth[H8802] H5315his lifeH6589: but he that openeth wide[H8802] H8193his lipsH4288shall have destruction.
H8267LyingH8193lipsH8441are abominationH3068to the LORDH6213: but they that deal[H8802] H530trulyH7522are his delight.
H8193The lipH571of truthH3559shall be established[H8735] H5703for everH8267: but a lyingH3956tongueH7280is but for a moment[H8686] .
H5329To the chief Musician[H8764] H3038, even to JeduthunH4210, A PsalmH1732of DavidH559. I said[H8804] H8104, I will take heed[H8799] H1870to my waysH2398, that I sin[H8800] H3956not with my tongueH8104: I will keep[H8799] H6310my mouthH4269with a bridleH7563, while the wicked is before me.
G3767WhereforeG659laying aside[G5642] G3956allG2549maliceG2532, andG3956allG1388guileG2532, andG5272hypocrisiesG2532, andG5355enviesG2532, andG3956allG2636evil speakings,
H4194DeathH2416and lifeH3027are in the powerH3956of the tongueH157: and they that love[H8802] H398it shall eat[H8799] H6529the fruit thereof.
H8267A falseH5707witnessH5352shall not be unpunished[H8735] H6315, and he that speaketh[H8686] H3577liesH6shall perish[H8799] .
H1942WickednessH7130is in the midstH8496thereof: deceitH4820and guileH4185depart[H8686] H7339not from her streets.
H559For he said[H8799] H5971, Surely they are my peopleH1121, childrenH8266that will not lie[H8762] H3467: so he was their Saviour[H8688] .
H7563The wickedH2015are overthrown[H8800] H1004, and are not: but the houseH6662of the righteousH5975shall stand[H8799] .
H7725That thou turnest[H8686] H7307thy spiritH410against GodH4405, and lettest such wordsH3318go out[H8689] H6310of thy mouth?
H1875Seek[H8798] H2896goodH7451, and not evilH2421, that ye may live[H8799] H3068: and so the LORDH430, the GodH6635of hostsH559, shall be with you, as ye have spoken[H8804] .
