18 Whoever (A)hides hatred has lying lips,
And (B)whoever spreads slander is a fool.

19 (C)In the multitude of words sin is not lacking,
But (D)he who restrains his lips is wise.
20 The tongue of the righteous is choice silver;
The heart of the wicked is worth little.
21 The lips of the righteous feed many,
But fools die for lack of [a]wisdom.
