Let your speech be of grace

Do not let any unwholesome talk come out of your mouths, but only what is helpful for building others up according to their needs, that it may benefit those who listen.
Eph 4:29

Nor should there be obscenity, foolish talk or coarse joking, which are out of place, but rather thanksgiving.
Eph 5:4

Let your speech always be gracious, seasoned with salt, so that you may know how you ought to answer each person.
Col 4:6

The soothing tongue is a tree of life, but a perverse tongue crushes the spirit.
Prov 15:4

The words of the reckless pierce like swords, but the tongue of the wise brings healing.
Prov 12:18

Words from the mouth of the wise are gracious, but fools are consumed by their own lips.
Eccs 10:12

I tell you, on the day of judgment people will give account for every careless word they speak, for by your words you will be justified, and by your words you will be condemned.
Matthew 12:36-37
