"Many have fallen by the edge of the sword, but not so many as have perished by their own tongue."
Nel contesto
20He that hearkeneth to it, shall never have rest, neither shall he have a friend in whom he may repose.
21The stroke of a whip maketh a blue mark: but the stroke of the tongue will break the bones.
22Many have fallen by the edge of the sword, but not so many as have perished by their own tongue.
23Blessed is he that is defended from a wicked tongue, that hath not passed into the wrath thereof, and that hath not drawn the yoke thereof, and hath not been bound in its bands.
24For its yoke is a yoke of iron: and its bands are bands of brass.
