Proverbs 18:8
Berean Standard Bible
The words of a gossip are like choice morsels that go down into the inmost being.
Context
6A fool’s lips bring him strife,
and his mouth invites a beating. 7A fool’s mouth is his ruin,
and his lips are a snare to his soul. 8The words of a gossip are like choice morsels
that go down into the inmost being. 9Whoever is slothful in his work
is brother to him who destroys. 10The name of the LORD is a strong tower;
the righteous run to it * and are safe.
