Proverbs15:4
4 A wholsom tongue is a tree of life , but perverseness therein is a breach of the Spirit .
Which [illegible: 1+ letters]ereth sound, and comfortable, and useful Counsels.
Is greatly useful to preserve the present Life, and to promote the Spiritual and Eternal Life, both of the Speaker and Hearers.
All sorts of false or corrupt Speeches.
Disturbs and wounds, and oft-times corrupts and destroys the Spirits or Souls both of the Speaker and Hearers.
