Psalm 141:3

New Century Version

Lord, help me control my tongue; help me be careful about what I say.

See the chapter Copy

People who think they are religious but say things they should not say are just fooling themselves. Their “religion” is worth nothing.

I said, “I will be careful how I act and will not sin by what I say. I will be careful what I say around wicked people.”

Don’t believe your neighbor or trust a friend. Don’t say anything, even to your wife.

We all make many mistakes. If people never said anything wrong, they would be perfect and able to control their entire selves, too.

You must not say evil things, and you must not tell lies.

I am always praising you; all day long I honor you.

So I kept very quiet. I didn’t even say anything good, but I became even more upset.
