²⁹ Let no ^[a](A)unwholesome word proceed from your mouth, but only such a word as is good for ^(B)edification ^[b]according to the need of the moment, so that it will give grace to those who hear.

⁴ and there must be no ^(A)filthiness and silly talk, or coarse jesting, which ^(B)are not fitting, but rather ^(C)giving of thanks.

⁸ But now you also, ^(A)put them all aside: ^(B)anger, wrath, malice, slander, and ^(C)abusive speech from your mouth.

^34 (A)You brood of vipers, how can you, being evil, speak ^[a]what is good? ^(B)For the mouth speaks out of that which fills the heart. ^35 (C)The good man brings out of his good treasure ^[b]what is good; and the evil man brings out of his evil treasure ^[c]what is evil. ³⁶ But I tell you that every ^[d]careless word that people ^[e]speak, they shall give an accounting for it in ^(D)the day of judgment. ³⁷ For ^[f]by your words you will be justified, and ^[g]by your words you will be condemned.”
