the heart bringeth forth good things: and an evil man out of the evil treasure bringeth
forth evil things.

which is evil: for of the abundance of the heart his mouth speaketh.
6) Lying — this is to tell a deliberate untruth or half truth . half a fact is a whole lie

and hath been tamed of mankind: 8But the tongue can no man tame; it is an unruly evil,

things are of good report; if there be any virtue, and if there be any praise, think on these

As we think on thes things , we find our speech will also be about these things and not be
critical , hateful, cynical or malicious.
6Let your speech be alway with grace, seasoned with salt, that ye may know how ye ought
to answer every man.
