TSK · Proverbs 11:13

"'You shall not go up and down as a slanderer among your people. "'You shall not endanger the life of your neighbor. I am Yahweh.

But if you talk about this business of ours, then we shall be guiltless of your oath which you have made us to swear."

In the multitude of words there is no lack of disobedience, but he who restrains his lips does wisely.

He who goes about as a tale-bearer reveals secrets; therefore don't keep company with him who opens wide his lips.

For lack of wood a fire goes out. Without gossip, a quarrel dies down.

Besides, they also learn to be idle, going about from house to house. Not only idle, but also gossips and busybodies, saying things which they ought not.
