Let your speech always be gracious, seasoned with salt, so that you may know how you ought to answer each person.

Let your speech always be gracious, seasoned with salt, so that you may know how you ought to answer each person.
Whoever restrains his words has knowledge, and he who has a cool spirit is a man of understanding.
Set a guard, O Lord, over my mouth; keep watch over the door of my lips!
Whoever restrains his words has knowledge, and he who has a cool spirit is a man of understanding.
Let your speech always be gracious, seasoned with salt, so that you may know how you ought to answer each person.
Let the words of my mouth and the meditation of my heart be acceptable in your sight, O Lord, my rock and my redeemer.
He who loves purity of heart, and whose speech is gracious, will have the king as his friend.
Whoever guards his mouth preserves his life; he who opens wide his lips comes to ruin.
“Then you shall call, and the Lord will answer; you shall cry, and He will say, ‘Here I am.’ If you take away the yoke from your midst, the pointing of the finger, and speaking wickedness” (Isaiah 58:9).
The reason we pray, fast and study God’s Word is to be heard in heaven. But the Lord attaches a big “if” to this. He declares, “If you want me to hear you on high, then you have to look at the issues of your heart. Yes, I will hear you — if you quit pointing a finger at others, if you stop speaking about them disrespectfully.”
