Fofoca
A fofoca destrói reputações e relacionamentos. A Bíblia condena severamente o murmúrio, a calúnia e a palavra maldosa, chamando o cristão a edificar com a boca.
O poder destrutivo
O homem perverso semeia contendas, e o que anda com fofocas separa amigos íntimos. A fofoca é veneno social.
A wayward man raiseth strives; and a man full of words separateth princes.
A feigner by mouth deceiveth his friend; but just [or rightwise] men shall be delivered by [or with] knowing.
He that goeth guilefully, showeth privates; but he that is faithful, covereth the private matter of a friend.
False lips hide hatred; he that bringeth forth despising is unwise.
Edificar com palavras
Não saia da boca nenhuma palavra torpe, mas só a que serve para edificação. Quem fala mal do irmão fala mal da lei.
Each evil word go not out of your mouth; but if any is good to the edification of faith, that it give grace to men that hear.
He that entereth without wem; and worketh rightfulness [or rightwise-ness]. He that speaketh truth in his heart;
which did not guile in his tongue. Nor did evil to his neighbour; and took not reproof against his neighbours.
Blessed be ye, when men shall curse you, and shall pursue you, and shall say all evil against you lying, for me.
