And the tongue is a fire, a world of iniquity. The tongue is so set among our members that it defiles the whole body, and sets on fire the course of nature; and it is set on fire by hell

For every kind of beast and bird, of reptile and creature of the sea, is tamed and has been tamed by mankind

But no man can tame the tongue It is an unruly evil, full of deadly poison

So then, my beloved brethren, let every man be swift to hear, slow to speak, slow to wrath

You shall not bear false witness against your neighbor.
