Job11:2

Should not the multitude of words be answered? - Some translate, "To multiply words profiteth nothing."

And should a man full of talk be justified - איש שפתים ish sephathayim, "a man of lips," a proper appellation for a great talker: he is "a man of lips," i.e., his lips are the only active parts of his system.
