Proverbs 13:3

3  Whoever wguards his mouth preserves his life;

he who opens wide his lips comes to ruin.


James 1:26

26 qIf anyone thinks he is religious and does not rbridle his tongue but deceives his heart, this person’s religion is worthless.


James 3:2–3

2 bFor we all cstumble in many ways. And if anyone does not stumble in what he says, he is a perfect man, able also to dbridle his whole body. 3 If we put bits into the mouths of horses so that they obey us, we guide their whole bodies as well.
