"A wicked word shall change the beast: out of which four manner of things arise, good and evil, life and death: and the tongue is continually the ruler of them. There is a man that is subtle and a teacher of many, and yet is unprofitable to his own soul."
En contexte
19But above all these things pray to the most High, that he may direct thy way in truth.
20In all thy works let the true word go before thee, and steady counsel before every action.
21A wicked word shall change the beast: out of which four manner of things arise, good and evil, life and death: and the tongue is continually the ruler of them. There is a man that is subtle and a teacher of many, and yet is unprofitable to his own soul.
22A skillful man hath taught many, and is sweet to his own soul.
23He that speaketh sophistically, is hateful: he shall be destitute of every thing.
