21The wise in heart shall be called prudent: and the sweetness of the lips increaseth learning.
23The heart of the wise teacheth his mouth, and addeth learning to his lips.
14Let the words of my mouth, and the meditation of my heart, be acceptable in thy sight, O ORD, my strength, and my redeemer.
19In the multitude of words there wanteth not sin: but he that refraineth his lips is wise.
18There is that speaketh like the piercings of a sword: but the tongue of the wise is health.
1 A soft answer turneth away wrath: but grievous words stir up anger.
24Pleasant words are as an honeycomb, sweet to the soul, and health to the bones.
2A fool hath no delight in understanding, but that his heart may discover itself.
13A foolish son is the calamity of his father: and the contentions of a wife are a continual dropping.
9It is better to dwell in a corner of the housetop, than with a brawling woman in a wide house.
19It is better to dwell in the wilderness, than with a contentious and an angry woman.
11A word fitly spoken is like apples of gold in pictures of silver.
15By long forbearing is a prince persuaded, and a soft tongue breaketh the bone.
24He that hateth dissembleth with his lips, and layeth up deceit within him;
25When he speaketh fair, believe him not: for there are seven abominations in his heart.
15A continual dropping in a very rainy day and a contentious woman are alike.
23Therefore if thou bring thy gift to the altar, and there rememberest that thy brother hath ought against thee;
24Leave there thy gift before the altar, and go thy way; first be reconciled to thy brother, and then come and offer thy gift.
29And if thy right eye offend thee, pluck it out, and cast it from thee: for it is profitable for thee that one of thy members should perish, and not that thy whole body should be cast into hell.
30And if thy right hand offend thee, cut it off, and cast it from thee: for it is profitable for thee that one of thy members should perish, and not that thy whole body should be cast into hell.
37But let your communication be, Yea, yea; Nay, nay: for whatsoever is more than these cometh of evil.
25Wherefore putting away lying, speak every man truth with his neighbour: for we are members one of another.
29Let no corrupt communication proceed out of your mouth, but that which is good to the use of edifying, that it may minister grace unto the hearers.
4Neither filthiness, nor foolish talking, nor jesting, which are not convenient: but rather giving of thanks.
19Husbands, love your wives, and be not bitter against them.
3Let nothing be done through strife or vainglory; but in lowliness of mind let each esteem other better than themselves.
4Look not every man on his own things, but every man also on the things of others.
4But let it be the hidden man of the heart, in that which is not corruptible, even the ornament of a meek and quiet spirit, which is in the sight of God of great price.
7Likewise, ye husbands, dwell with them according to knowledge, giving honour unto the wife, as unto the weaker vessel, and as being heirs together of the grace of life; that your prayers be not hindered.
19Wherefore, my beloved brethren, let every man be swift to hear, slow to speak, slow to wrath:
20For the wrath of man worketh not the righteousness of God.
11Speak not evil one of another, brethren. He that speaketh evil of his brother, and judgeth his brother, speaketh evil of the law, and judgeth the law: but if thou judge the law, thou art not a doer of the law, but a judge.
15For we have not an high priest which cannot be touched with the feeling of our infirmities; but was in all points tempted like as we are, yet without sin.
16Let us therefore come boldly unto the throne of grace, that we may obtain mercy, and find grace to help in time of need.
