1 Peter3:10
10 For he that will love life , and see good days, let him refrain his tongue from evil , and his lips that they speak no guile .
He that earnestly desires to lead a quiet and comfortable Life here, and to enjoy Eternal Life hereafter.
Peaceable, and prosperous; as evil days are such as are grievous and calamitous, Gen. 47.9.
From evil-speaking, railing, reviling, open destruction.
Tell no Lies of his Neighbour: Or, this may imply Whispering, Back-biting, or any way, secretly and closely speaking evil of him. Under these two, all the Vices of the Tongue, whereby our Neighbour may be wronged, are contained, and the contrary Virtues commanded under the Name of Blessing.
Marginal references: Psal. 34.12. &c.
