The Tongue

his neighbour, nor taketh up a reproach against his neighbour.

and like oil into his bones.

discord among brethren.

heart of the wicked is little worth.

forth wisdom: but the froward tongue shall be cut out.

Ecclesiastes 5:2,3 Be not rash with thy mouth, and let not

fool's voice is known by multitude of words.
 
Ecclesiastes 5:6,7 Suffer not thy mouth to cause thy flesh to
sin; neither say thou before the angel, that it was an error:

work of thine hands?

For in the multitude of dreams and many words there are also 
divers vanities: but fear thou God.

Ecclesiastes 10:12,13,14 The words of a wise man's mouth are 
gracious; but the lips of a fool will swallow up himself.

The beginning of the words of his mouth is foolishness: and 
the end of his talk is mischievouó madness.

A fool also is full of words: a man cannot tell what shall 
be; and what shall be after him, who can tell him?

Ecclesiastes 12:11 The words of the wise are as goads, ans 
as nails fastened by the masters of assemblies, which are 
given from one shepherd.

heart will work iniquity, to practise hypocrisy, and to utter 
error against the Lord,to make empty the soul of the hungry, 
and he will cause the drink of the thirsty to fail.

The instruments of the churl are evil: he deviseth wicked 
devices to destroy the poor with lying words, even when the 
needy speaketh right.

Isaiah 58:8,9 Then shall thy light break forth as the morning, 
and thine health shall spring forth speedily: and thy 
righteousness shall go before thee: the glory of the Lord 
shall be thy rereward.

Then shalt thou call, and the Lord shall answer; thou shalt 
cry, and he shall say, Here I am.  If thou take away from the 
midst of thee the yoke, the putting forth of the finger, and
speaking vanity;

Isaiah 59:2,3,4 But your iniquities have separated between you   
and your God. and your sins have hid his face from you, that he  
will not hear.

For your hands are defiled with blood, and your fingers with   
iniquity; your lips have spoken lies, your tongue hath muttered  
perverseness.

None called for justice, nor any pleadeth for truth: they trust  
in vanity, and speak lies; they conceive mischief, and bring   
forth iniquity.

Isaiah 59:13 In transgressing and lying against the Lord, and   
departing away from our God, speaking oppression and revolt,  
conceiving and uttering from the heart words of falsehood.

Jeremiah 9:5,6 And they will deceive every one his neighbour, and   
will not speak the truth: they have taught their tongue to speak  
lies, and weary themselves to commit iniquity.

refuse to know me, saith the Lord.

Jeremiah 9:8,9 Their tongue is as an arrow shot out; it speaketh  
deceit: one speaketh peaceably to his neighbour with his mouth,   
but in heart he layeth his wait.

Shall I not visit them for these things? saith the Lord: shall  
not my soul be avenged on such a nation as this?

Jeremiah 23:10 For the land is full of adulterers; for because of   
swearing the land mourneth; the pleasant places of the wilderness   
are dried up, and their course is evil, and their force is not   
right.

Hosea 4:6 My people are destroyed for lack of knowledge: because  
thou hast rejected knowledge, I will also reject thee, that thou   
shalt be no priest to me: seeing thou hast forgotten the law of   
thy God, I will also forget thy children.

Hosea 4:1,2,3 Hear the word of the Lord ye children of Israel:   
for the Lord hath a controversy with the inhabitants of the land,   
because there is no truth, nor mercy, nor knowledge of God in the  
land.

By swearing, and lying, and killing, and stealing, and committing  
adultery, they break out, and blood toucheth blood.

Therefore shall the land mourn, and every one that dwelleth  
therein shall languish, with the beasts of the field, and with the  
fowls of heaven; yea, the fishes of the sea also shall be taken   
away.

Hosea 7:16 They return, but not to the most High: they are like a   
deceitful bow: their princes shall fall by the sword for the rage  
of their tongue: this shall be their derision in the land of   
Egypt.

Micah 7:5,6,7 Trust ye not in a friend, put ye not confidence in  
a guide: keep the doors of thy mouth from her that lieth in thy  
bosom.

For the son dishonoureth the father, the daughter riseth up   
against her mother, the daughter in law against her mother in  
law; a man's enemies are the men of his own house.

Therefore I will look unto the Lord; I will wait for the God of  
my salvation: my God will hear me.

Zechariah 8:16,17 These are the things that ye shall do; Speak ye   
every man the truth to his neighbour; execute the judgment of  
truth to his neighbour; execute the judgment of truth and peace  
in your gates:

And let none of yor imagine evil in your hearts against   
his neighbour, and love no false oath: for all these are things  
that I hate, saith the Lord.

Malachi 2:17 Ye have wearied the Lord with your words.  Yet ye  
say, Wherein have we wearied him?  When ye say,  Every one that  
doeth evil is good in the sight of the Lord, and he delighteth in  
them; or, Where is the God of judgment?

Malachi 3:13,14,15 Your words have been stout against  me, saith  
the Lord.  Yet ye say, What have we spoken so much aginst thee?

Ye have said, It is vain to serve God:and what profit is it that   
we have kept his ordinance, and that we have walked mournfully  
before the Lord of hosts?

And now we call the proud happy; yea, they that work wickedness  
are set up; yea they that tempt God are even delivered.

Malachi 3:16,17 Then they that feared the Lord spake often one to  
another: and the Lord hearkened, and heard it, and a book of   
remembrance was written  before him for them that feared the Lord,  
and that thought upon his name. 

And they shall be mine, saith the Lord of Hosts, in that day when   
I make up my jewels and I will spare them as a man spareth his own   
son that serveth him.

Matthew 5:22,23,24 But I say unto you, That whosoever is angry    
with his brother without a cause shall be in danger of the   
judgment: and whosoever shall say to his brother, Raca, shall be  
in danger of the council: but whosoever shall say, Thou fool,  
shall be in danger of hell fire.

Therefore if thou bring thy gift before the altar, and go thy way;  
first be reconciled to thy brother, and then come and offer thy   
gift.

Leave there thy gift before the altar, and go thy way; first be   
rceonciled to thy brother, and then come and offer thy gift.

Matthew 5:33,34 Again, ye have heard that it hath been said by  
them of old time, Thou shalt not forswear thyself, but shalt   
perform unto the Lord thine oaths:

But I say unto you, Swear not at all; neither by heaven; for it   
is God's throne:

Matthew 5:35,36,37 Not by the earth; for it is his footstool:   
neither by Jerusalem; for it is the city of the great King.

Neither shalt thou swear by thy head, because thou canst not 
make one hair white or black.

But let your communication be, Yea, yea; Nay, nay: for 
whatsoever is more than these cometh of evil.

Matthew 12:32 And whosoever speaketh a word against the Son 
of man, it shall be forgiven him: but whosoever speaketh 
against the Holy Ghost, it shall not be forgiven him, neither 
in this world, neither in the world to come.

Matthew 12:34,35 O generation of vipers, how can ye, being 
evil, speak good things? for out of the abundance of the 
heart, the mouth speaketh.

A good man out of the good treasure of the heart bringeth 
forth good things: and an evil man out of the evil treasure 
bringeth forth evil things.

Matthew 12:36,37 But I say unto you, That every idle word 
that men shall speak, they shall give account thereof in 
the day of judgment.

For by thy words thou shalt be justified, and by thy words 
thou shalt be condemned.

Matthew 15:8 This people draweth nigh unto me with their 
mouth, and honoureth me with their lips; but their heart 
is far from me.

Matthew 15:18,19,20 But those things which proceed out of 
the mouth come forth from the heart; and they defile the 
man.

For out of the heart proceed evil thoughts, murderers, 
adulteries, fornications, thefts, false witness, 
blasphemies:

These are the things which defile a man: but to eat with 
unwashed hands defileth not a man.

Matthew 18:15,16,17 Moreover if thy brother shall trespass   
against thee, go and tell him his fault between thee and 
him alone: if he shall hear thee, thou hast gained thy 
brother.

But if he will not hear thee, then take with thee one or two   
more, that in the mouth of two ot three witnesses every word 
may be established.

And if he shall neglect to hear them, tell it unto the church:   
but if he neglect to hear the church, let him be unto thee as 
an heathen man and a publican.

Matthew 18:18,19 Verily I say unto you, Whatsoever ye shall bind  
on earth shall be bound in heaven: and whatsoever ye shall loose  
on earth shall be loosed in heaven.

Again I say unto you, That if two of you shall agree on eath as  
touching any thing that they shall ask, it shall be done for  
them of my Father which is in heaven.

Mark 7:5,6,7 Then the Pharisees and scribes asked Him, Why 
walk not Thy disciples according to the tradition of the 
elders, but eat bread with unwashen hands?

He answered and said unto them, Well hath Esaias ptophesied 
of you hypocrites, as it is written, This people honoureth 
me with thier lips, but their heart is far from me.

Howbeit in vain do they worship me, teaching for doctrines
the commandments of men.

Luke 6:45 A good man out of the good treasure of his heart   
bringeth forth that which is good; and an evil man out of the   
evil treasure of his heart bringeth forth that which is evil: 
for of the abundance of the heart his mouth speaketh.

Luke 20:20 And they watched him, and sent forth spies, which   
should feign themselves just men, that they might take hold of  
his words, that so they might deliver him unto the power and  
authority of the governor.

John 14:23 Jesus answered and said unto him, If a man love me, 
he will keep my words: and my Father will love him, and we will 
come unto him, and make our abode with him.

Romans 3:10,11,12 As it is written, There is none righteous,  
no, not one:

There is none that understandeth, there is none that seeketh 
after God.   

They are all gone out of the way, they are together become   
unprofitable; there is none that doeth good, no, not one.

Romans 3:13,14,15 Their throat is an open sepulchre; with 
their tongues they have used deceit; the poison of asps 
is under their lips:

Whose mouth is full of cursing and bitterness:

Their feet are swift to shed blood:

Romans 3:16,17,18 Destruction and misery are in their ways:

And the way of peace have they not known;

There is no fear of God before their eyes.

Romans 3:19 Now we know that what things soever the law saith, 
it saith to them who are under the law: that every mouth may 
be stopped, and all the world may become guilty before God.

Romans 10:8,9,10 But what saith it? The word is nigh thee,    
even in thy mouth, and in thy heart; that is, the word of 
faith, which we preach.

That if thou shalt confess with thy mouth the Lord Jesus, 
and shalt believe in thine heart that God hath raised him 
from the dead, thou shalt be saved.

For with the heart man believeth unto righteousness; and with 
the mouth confession is made unto salvation.

I Corinthians 13:1,2,3 Though I speak with the tongues of men 
and of angels, and have not charity, I am become as sounding 
brass, or a tinkling cymbal.

And though I have the gift of prophecy, and understand all  
mysteries, and all knowledge; and though I have all faith, 
so that I could remove mountains, and have not charity, I 
am nothing.

And though I bestow all my goods to feed the poor, and though 
I give my body to be burned, and have not charity, it profiteth 
me nothing.

I Corinthians 13:4,5,6 Charity suffereth long, and is kind;  
charity envieth not; charity vaunteth not itself, is not 
puffed up,

Doth not behave itself unseemly, seeketh not her own, is not  
easily provoked, thinketh no evil;

Rejoiceth not in iniquity, but rejoiceth in the truth;

II Corinthians 12:20,21 For I fear, lest, when I come, I shall   
not find you such as I would, and that I shall be found unto 
you such as ye would not: lest there be debates, envyings, 
wraths, strifes, backbitings, whisperingss, swellings, tumults:

And lest, when I come again, my God will humble me among you, 
and that I shall bewail many which have sinned already, and 
have not repented of the uncleanness and fornication and 
lasciviousness which they have committed.

Ephesians 4:22 That ye put off concerning the former 
conversation the old man, which is corrupt according 
to the deceitful lusts;

Ephesians 4:25 Wherefore putting away lying, speak every man  
truth with his neighbour: for we are members one of another.

Ephesians 4:29,30,31,32 Let 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.

And grieve not the Holy Spirit of God, whereby ye are sealed 
unto the day of redemption.

Let all bitterness, and wrath, and anger, and clamour, and evil  
speaking, be put away from you, with all malice:  

And be ye kine one to another, tenderhearted, forgiving one   
another, even as God for Christ's sake hath forgiven you.

Ephesians 5:3,4,5 But fornication, and all uncleanness, or   
covetousness, let it not be once named among you, as becometh   
saints;

Neither filthiness, nor foolish talking, nor jesting, which are   
not convenient: but rather giving of thanks.

For this ye know, that no whoremonger, nor unclean person,
nor coveteous man, who is an idolator hath any inheritance in the   
kingdom of Christ and of God.

Ephesians 5:6,7 Let no man deceive you with vain words: for 
because of these things cometh the wrath of God upon the 
children of disobedience.

Be ye not partakers with them.

Philippians 1:27 Only let your conversation be as it becometh 
the gospel of Christ: that whether I come and see you, or else 
be absent, I may hear of your affairs, that ye stand fast in one   
spirit, with one mind striving together for the faith of the  
gospel;

Philippians 2:9,10,11 Wherefore God also hath highly exalted him,   
an given him a name which is above every name:

That at the name of Jesus every knee should bow, of things in   
heaven, and things in earth and things under the earth;

And that every tongue should confess that Jesus Christ is Lord,   
to the glory of God the Father.

Philippians 2:14,15 Do all things without murmurings and   
disputings:

That ye may be blameless and harmless, the sons of God, without   
rebuke, in the midst of a crooked and perverse nation, among  
whom ye shine as lights in the world;

Philippians 3:20 For our conversation is in heaven; from whence  
also we look for the Saviour, the Lord Jesus Christ.  

Colossians 3:8,9,10 But now ye also put off all these: anger,   
wrath, malice, blasphemy, filthy communication out of yur mouth.

Lie not one to another, seeing that ye have put off the old man  
with his deeds;

And we have put on the new man, which is renewed in knowledge   
after the image of him that created him.

Colossians 3:16 Let the word of Christ dwell in you richly in all  
wisdom; teaching and admonishing one another in psalms and hymns  
and spiritual songs, singing with grace in your hearts to the   
Lord.

Colossians 4:6 Let your speech be alway with grace, seasoned with  
salt, that ye may know how ye ought to answer every man.

I Thessalonians 4:6 That no man go beyond and defraud his brother  
in any matter: because that the Lord is the avenger of all such,  
as we also have forewarned you and testified.

I Timothy 5:13 And withal they learn to be idle, wandering about   
from house to house; and not only idle, but tattlers also and   
busybodies, speaking things which they ought not.

I Timothy 6:12 Fight the good fight of faith, lay hold on eternal   
life, whereunto thou are also called, and hast professed a good   
profession before many witnessess.

I Timothy 6:20 O Timothy, keep that which is committed to thy   
trust, avoiding profane and vain babblings, and oppositions of   
science falsely so called:

II Timothy 2:16,17 shun profane and vain babblings: for they  
will increase unto more ungodliness

And their word will eat as doth a canker, of whom is Hymenaeus  
and Pliletus;

Titus 1:10,11 For there are many unruly and vain talkers and   
deceivers, specially them of the circumcision: whose mouths must   
be stopped, who subvert whole houses, teaching things which they  
ought not, for filthy lucre's sake.

Titus 1:15,16 Unto the pure all things are pure: but unto them   
that are defiled and unbelieving is nothing pure, but even their    
mind and conscience is defiled.

They profess that they know God: but in works they deny him,   
being abominable, and disobedient, and unto every good work   
reprobate.

Titus 2:7,¸ In all things shewing thyself a pattern of good  
works: in doctrine shewing uncorruptness, gravity, sincerity,

Sound speech, that cannot be condemned; that he that is of the  
contrary part may be ashamed, having no evil thing to say of you.

Titus 3:2 To speak evil of no man, to be no brawlers, but gentle,  
shewing all meekness unto all men.

Tituó 3:9 But avoid foolish questions, and genealogies, and  
contentions, and strivings about the law; for they are  
unprofitable and vain.

Hebrews 13:5 Let your conversation be without covetousness; and  
be content with such things as ye have: for he hath said, I will   
never leave thee, nor forsake thee.

James 1:19 Wherefore, my beloved brethren, let every man be swift   
to hear, slow to speak, slow to wrath:

James 1:22 But be ye doers of the word, and not hearers only,   
deceiving your own selves.

James 1:26,27 If any man among you seem to be religious, and   
bridleth not his tongue, but deceiveth his own heart, this man's  
religion is vain.   

Pure religion and undefiled before God and the Father is this, To   
visit the fatherless and widows in their afffliction, and to keep   
himself unspotted from the world.

James 3:2 For in many things we offend all.  If any man offend   
not in word, the same is a perfect man, and able also to bridle  
the whole body.

James 3:13 Who is a wise man and endued with knowledge among you?   
let him shew out of a good conversation his works with meekness  
of wisdom.

I Peter 1:15,16 But as he which hath called you is holy, so be ye  
holy in all manner of conversation:

Because it is written, Be ye holy; for I am holy.

I Peter 2:12 Having your conversation honest among the Gentiles:  
that, whereas they speak against you as evildoers, they may behold
your good works, which they shall behold, glorify God in the day 
of visitation.

I Peter 2:21,22,23 For even hereunto were ye called: because  
Christ also suffered for us, leaving us an example, that ye should   
follow his steps:

Who did no sin, neither was guile found in his mouth:

Who, when he was reviled, reviled not again; when he suffered, he  
threatened not; but committed himself to him that judgeth   
righteously:

I Peter 3:1,2 Likewise, ye wives, be in subjection to your own   
husbands; that, if any obey not the word, they also may without   
the word be won by the conversation of the wives.

While they behold your chaste conversation coupled with fear.  

II Peter 3:2,3,4 That ye may be mindful of the words which were   
spoken before by the holy prophets, and of the commandment of us  
the apostles of the Lord and Saviour:

Knowing thid first, that there shall come in the last days  
scoffers, walking after their own lusts,

And saying, Where is the promise of his coming? for since the  
fathers fell asleep, all things continue as they were from the  
beginning of the creation.

II Peter 3:5,6 For this they willingly are ignorant of, that by
the word of God the heavens were of old, and the earth standing
out of the water and in teh water:

Whereby the world that then was, sbeing overflowed with water,
perished.

II Peter 3:11 See then that all these things shall be dissolved,   
what manner of persons ought ye to be in all holy conversation  
and godliness,

I John 3:18 My little children, let us not love in word, neither   
in tongue; but in deed and in truth.

I John 5:7 For there are three that bear record in heaven, the   
Father, the Word, and the Holy Ghost: and these three are one.

Jude :9 Yet Michael the archangel, when contending with the devil  
he disputed abot the body of Moses, durst not bring against him a  
railing accusation, but said, The Lord rebuke thee.   

Jude :14,15,16 And Enoch also, the seventh from Adam, prophesied   
of these, saying, Behold, the Lord cometh with ten thousands of  
his saints.

To execute judgment upon all, and to convince all that are   
ungodly among them of all their udgodly deeds which they have   
ungodly committed, and of all their hard speeches which ungodly   
sinners have spoken against him.

These are murmurers, complainers, walking after their own lusts;  
and their mouth speaketh great swelling words, having men's   
persons in admiration because of advantage. 

Jude :17,18 But, beloved, remember ye the words which were spoken  
before of the apostles of our Lord Jesus Christ;

How that they told you there should be mockers in the last time,  
wo should walk after their own ungodly lusts. 

Revelation 12:11 And they overcame him by the blood of the Lamb,   
and by the word of their testiony, and they loved not their lives  
unto the death.  

Revelation 21:7,8 He that overcometh shall inherit all things; and  
I will be his God, and he shall be my son.

But the fearful, and unbelieving, and the abominable, and  
murderers, and whoremongers, and sorcerers, and idolaters,   
and all liars, shall have their part in the lake which burneth   
with fire and brimstone; which is the second death.
