A troublemaker and a villain, who goes about with a corrupt mouth,

An evil troublemaker goes around saying twisted things with his mouth.

What are worthless and wicked people like? They are constant liars,

A worthless person, a wicked man, Walks with a perverse mouth;

Put away from you crooked speech, and put devious talk far from you.

A worthless man plots evil, and his speech is like a scorching fire.

Besides that, they learn to be idlers, going about from house to house, and not only idlers, but also gossips and busybodies, saying what they should not.

You brood of vipers! How can you speak good, when you are evil? For out of the abundance of the heart the mouth speaks.

and from among your own selves will arise men speaking twisted things, to draw away the disciples after them.

And the tongue is a fire, a world of unrighteousness. The tongue is set among our members, staining the whole body, setting on fire the entire course of life, and set on fire by hell.

For there are many who are insubordinate, empty talkers and deceivers, especially those of the circumcision party.They must be silenced, since they are upsetting whole families by teaching for shameful gain what they ought not to teach.

An evildoer listens to wicked lips, and a liar gives ear to a mischievous tongue.

The fear of the Lord is hatred of evil. Pride and arrogance and the way of evil and perverted speech I hate.

For the wicked boasts of the desires of his soul, and the one greedy for gain curses and renounces the Lord.

The words of his mouth are trouble and deceit; he has ceased to act wisely and do good.

Your tongue plots destruction, like a sharp razor, you worker of deceit.You love evil more than good, and lying more than speaking what is right. SelahYou love all words that devour, O deceitful tongue.

His mouth is filled with cursing and deceit and oppression; under his tongue are mischief and iniquity.

The righteousness of the upright delivers them, but the treacherous are taken captive by their lust.

delivering you from the way of evil, from men of perverted speech,

with perverted heart devises evil, continually sowing discord;

They scoff and speak with malice; loftily they threaten oppression.They set their mouths against the heavens, and their tongue struts through the earth.

There they are, bellowing with their mouths with swords in their lips— for“ Who,” they think,“ will hear us?”

Now Eliab his eldest brother heard when he spoke to the men. And Eliab’s anger was kindled against David, and he said,“ Why have you come down? And with whom have you left those few sheep in the wilderness? I know your presumption and the evil of your heart, for you have come down to see the battle.”

“ But thus says the Lord: Like the bad figs that are so bad they cannot be eaten, so will I treat Zedekiah the king of Judah, his officials, the remnant of Jerusalem who remain in this land, and those who dwell in the land of Egypt.I will make them a horror to all the kingdoms of the earth, to be a reproach, a byword, a taunt, and a curse in all the places where I shall drive them.And I will send sword, famine, and pestilence upon them, until they shall be utterly destroyed from the land that I gave to them and their fathers.”

One basket had very good figs, like first-ripe figs, but the other basket had very bad figs, so bad that they could not be eaten.

Therefore put away all filthiness and rampant wickedness and receive with meekness the implanted word, which is able to save your souls.
