--Leviticus-- Thou shalt not go up and down [as] a talebearer among thy people: neither shalt thou stand against the blood of thy neighbour: I [am] the Lord. (19:16) --Psalms-- Thou sittest and speakest against thy brother; thou slanderest thine own mother's son (50:20) --Proverbs-- A talebearer revealeth secrets: but he that is of a faithful spirit concealeth the matter. (11:13) He that goeth about [as] a talebearer revealeth secrets: therefore meddle not with him that flattereth with his lips. (20:19) --Ezekiel-- In thee are men that carry tales to shed blood: and in thee they eat upon the mountains: in the midst of thee they commit lewdness. (22:9) |
