Be Quiet Sometimes

"The lips of the righteous know what is acceptable; but the mouth of the wicked speaketh frowardness." Proverbs 10:32

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

"He that keepeth his mouth keepeth his life; but he that openeth wide his lips shall have destruction." Proverbs 13:3

Sometimes we talk too much. Sometimes it is better not to say anything than to lie, to gossip, or to hurt someone. Some things are better left unsaid.

"To every thing there is a season ... a time to keep silence, and a time to speak ..." Ecclesiastes 3:1 & 7
