¹⁹ In the multitude of words there wanteth not sin:
    but he that refraineth his lips is wise.

²³ A prudent man concealeth knowledge:
    but the heart of fools proclaimeth foolishness.

³ He that keepeth his mouth keepeth his life:
    but he that openeth wide his lips shall have destruction.

²⁸ Even a fool, when he holdeth his peace, is counted wise:
    and he that shutteth his lips is esteemed a man of understanding.

¹³ He that answereth a matter before he heareth it,
    it is folly and shame unto him.

²³ Whoso keepeth his mouth and his tongue
    keepeth his soul from troubles.
