God Resisteth The Proud . . .

. . . but giveth grace to the humble.

~James 4:6~

Keep thy tongue from evil, and thy lips from speaking guile.
~Psalm 34:13~

For . . .

Where no wood is, there the fire goeth out:

so where there is no talebearer, the strife ceaseth.

~Proverbs 26:20~

The north wind driveth away rain:

so doth an angry countenance a backbiting tongue.
~Proverbs 25:23~

Speak not one against another, brethren.

He that speaketh against a brother,

or judgeth his brother, speaketh against the law,

and judgeth the law: but if thou judgest the law,

thou art not a doer of the law, but a judge.

One only is the Lawgiver and Judge,

even He who is able to save and to destroy:

but who art thou that judgest thy neighbor?

~James 4:11-12~
