Matthew 12:33-37
33“Either make the tree good and its fruit good, or make the tree bad and its fruit bad; for 1the tree is known by its fruit. 342You brood of vipers, how can you, being evil, speak 3what is good? 4For the mouth speaks out of that which fills the heart. 355The good man brings out of his good treasure 6what is good; and the evil man brings out of his evil treasure 7what is evil. 36But I tell you that every 8careless word that people 9speak, they shall give an accounting for it in 10the day of judgment. 37For 11by your words you will be justified, and 12by your words you will be condemned.”
