| A talebearer revealeth secrets: but he that is of a faithful spirit concealeth the matter. (Prov. 11:13) |
| The words of a talebearer are as wounds, and they go down into the innermost parts of the belly. (Prov. 18:8) |
| Where no wood is, there the fire goeth out: so where there is no talebearer, the strife ceaseth. (Prov. 26:20) |
| Set a watch, O Lord, before my mouth; keep the door of my lips. (Psa. 141:3) |
Words are things of little cost,
Quickly spoken, quickly lost;
We forget them, but they stand
Witnesses at God’s right hand;
Grant us, Lord, from day to day,
Strength to watch and grace to pray;
May our lips, from sin set free,
Love to speak and sing of Thee. |
