19 (A)When words are many, transgression is not lacking, (B)but whoever restrains his lips is prudent.
19 With lots of words comes wrongdoing, but the wise restrain their lips.
23 (A)Whoever keeps his mouth and his tongue (B)keeps himself out of (C)trouble.
23 Those who guard their mouths and their tongues guard themselves from trouble.
