3 Those who guard their lips preserve their lives,

but those who speak rashly will come to ruin.

3 Whoever guards his mouth preserves his life;

he who opens wide his lips comes to ruin.

3 Those who control their tongue will have a long life;

opening your mouth can ruin everything.

3 He who guards his mouth preserves his life,

But he who opens wide his lips shall have destruction.

3 Those who are careful about what they say protect their lives,

but whoever speaks without thinking will be ruined.

3 He that guardeth his mouth keepeth his life; But he that openeth wide his lips shall have destruction.

3 He that guardeth his mouth keepeth his soul; destruction shall be to him that openeth wide his lips.

3 Whoever controls his mouth protects his own life. 

Whoever has a big mouth comes to ruin. 

3 The one who guards his mouth protects his life;

the one who opens his lips invites his own ruin.

3 Those who guard their mouths preserve their lives;

those who open wide their lips come to ruin.

3 He who keeps his mouth guards his life;

he who opens his lips, ruin belongs to him.

3 Anyone who guards what he says guards his life.

But anyone who speaks without thinking will be destroyed.

3 The one who guards his mouth preserves his life;

The one who opens wide his lips comes to ruin.
