Proverbs 10:19

בְּרֹ֣ב דְּ֭בָרִים לֹ֣א יֶחְדַּל פָּ֑שַׁע וְחֹשֵׂ֥ךְ שְׂ֝פָתָ֗יו מַשְׂכִּֽיל׃
brob dbariym loʾ yeḥdal pashaʿ vḥoshek shpatayv mashkiyl
King James Version (KJV)

In the multitude of words there wanteth not sin: but he that refraineth his lips is wise.

Modern English

When words are many, transgression is not lacking, but whoever restrains his lips is prudent.
