Bible Verses about Speaking

    those who love it will eat its fruit.
  • The good man out of the good treasure of his heart brings out that which is good, and the evil man out of the evil treasure of his heart brings out that which is evil, for out of the abundance of the heart, his mouth speaks.
  • Let no corrupt speech proceed out of your mouth, but only what is good for building others up as the need may be, that it may give grace to those who hear.
  • He who guards his mouth guards his soul.
    One who opens wide his lips comes to ruin.
  • Not rendering evil for evil or insult for insult; but instead blessing, knowing that you were called to this, that you may inherit a blessing.
  • A gentle tongue is a tree of life,
    but deceit in it crushes the spirit.
  • I tell you that every idle word that men speak, they will give account of it in the day of judgment.
  • Even a fool, when he keeps silent, is counted wise.
    When he shuts his lips, he is thought to be discerning.
  • In the multitude of words there is no lack of disobedience,
    but he who restrains his lips does wisely.

    in the cause of all who are left desolate.
  • Joy comes to a man with the reply of his mouth.
    How good is a word at the right time!
  • A gentle answer turns away wrath,
    but a harsh word stirs up anger.
  • My little children, let’s not love in word only, or with the tongue only, but in deed and truth.
  • For we all stumble in many things. Anyone who doesn’t stumble in word is a perfect person, able to bridle the whole body also.
  • The words of a wise man’s mouth are gracious; but a fool is swallowed by his own lips.
  • One who brings gossip betrays a confidence,
    but one who is of a trustworthy spirit is one who keeps a secret.
  • Out of the same mouth comes blessing and cursing. My brothers, these things ought not to be so.
  • My mouth shall be filled with your praise,
    with your honor all day long.
  • If your brother sins against you, go, show him his fault between you and him alone. If he listens to you, you have gained back your brother.

  • Walk in wisdom toward those who are outside, redeeming the time. Let your speech always be with grace, seasoned with salt, that you may know how you ought to answer each one.
  • That if you will confess with your mouth that Jesus is Lord and believe in your heart that God raised him from the dead, you will be saved.
  • Where there is no counsel, plans fail;
    but in a multitude of counselors they are established.
  • In the same way, the Spirit also helps our weaknesses, for we don’t know how to pray as we ought. But the Spirit himself makes intercession for us with groanings which can’t be uttered.
