Bible Quotes in Song Listen

LORD, who shall abide in thy tabernacle? who shall dwell in thy holy hill? He that walketh uprightly, and worketh righteousness, and speaketh the truth in his heart. He that backbiteth not with his tongue, nor doeth evil to his neighbour, nor taketh up a reproach against his neighbour.
(Psalm 15:1-3)

Let the words of my mouth, and the meditation of my heart, be acceptable in thy sight, O LORD, my strength, and my redeemer.
(Psalm 19:14)

Keep thy tongue from evil, and thy lips from speaking guile.
(Psalm 34:13)

 
Bible Quotes
Thou shalt not go up and down as a talebearer among thy people: neither shalt thou stand against the blood of thy neighbour; I am the LORD.
(
Leviticus 19:16)

Help, LORD; for the godly man ceaseth; for the faithful fail from among the children of men. They speak vanity every one with his neighbour: with flattering lips and with a double heart do they speak. Who have said, With our tongue will we prevail; our lips are our own: who is lord over us?
(Psalm 12:1,2,4)

The mouth of the righteous speaketh wisdom, and his tongue talketh of judgment. The law of his God is in his heart; none of his steps shall slide.
(Psalm 37:30,31)

The tongue deviseth mischiefs; like a sharp razor, working deceitfully.
(Psalm 52:2)

A talebearer revealeth secrets: but he that is of a faithful spirit concealeth the matter.
(Proverbs 11:13)

A froward man soweth strife: and a whisperer separateth chief friends.
(Proverbs 16:28)

He that goeth about as a talebearer revealeth secrets: therefore meddle not with him that flattereth with his lips.
(Proverbs 20:19)

The north wind driveth away rain: so doth an angry countenance a backbiting tongue.
(Proverbs 25:23)

Where no wood is, there the fire goeth out: so where there is no talebearer, the strife ceaseth. As coals are to burning coals, and wood to fire; so is a contentious man to kindle strife. The words of a talebearer are as wounds, and they go down into the innermost parts of the belly.
(Proverbs 26:20-22)

The Bible and Gossip

What effect can gossip have? It breaks down relationships.
"Do not pass along untrue reports. Do not cooperate with an evil man by affirming on the witness stand something you know is false." Exodus 23:1, TLB

Gossip is as harmful and lasting as physical wounds.
"Telling lies about someone is as harmful as hitting him with an axe, or wounding him with a sword, or shooting him with a sharp arrow." Proverbs 25:18, TLB

Gossip wastes valuable time.
"Yet we hear that some of you are living in laziness, refusing to work, and wasting your time in gossiping. In the name of the Lord Jesus Christ we appeal to such people—we command them—to quiet down, get to work, and earn their own living." II Thessalonians 3:11-12, TLB

Gossip can ruin friendships.
"An evil man sows strife; gossip separates the best of friends." Proverbs 16:28, TLB

Gossip is based on rumours.
"A gossip goes around spreading rumours, while a trustworthy man tries to quiet them." Proverbs 11:13, TLB5
