“When words are many,
Transgression is not lacking.
But the prudent are restrained in speech.
The tongue of the righteous is choice silver.
The mind of the wicked is of little worth.
The lips of the righteous feed many.
But fools die for lack of sense.”
If you talk too much, the chance of transgression increases. The prudent are more restrained in speech. The righteous have a silver tongue, while the wicked have very little worthwhile in their mind. The lips of the righteous can feed many people, but fools die for a lack of good sense.
