Holy Scripture
Proverbs 15:3
A church father on this verse
“"In every place the eyes of the Lord behold the good and the evil." And when we are gathered together with the brethren in one place and celebrate divine sacrifices with a priest of God, we ought to be mindful of modesty and discipline and not toss our prayers about at random with uncouth voices and not cast forth wit…”

2The tongue of the wise knows what is good: But the mouth of the foolish tells out evil things.
— Proverbs 15:3 —
4The wholesome tongue is a tree of life, And he that keeps it shall be filled with understanding.
5A fool scorns his father’s instruction: But he that keeps his commandments is more prudent. In abounding righteousness is great strength: But the ungodly shall utterly perish from the earth.
