19 A gossip betrays a confidence; so avoid anyone who talks too much.
19 He that goeth about as a talebearer revealeth secrets: therefore meddle not with him that flattereth
19 Whoever goes about slandering reveals secrets; therefore do not associate with a simple babbler.
19 Gossips can't keep secrets, so never confide in blabbermouths.
19 He who goes about as a talebearer reveals secrets; Therefore do not associate with one who flatters with his lips.
19 A gossip goes around telling secrets, so don't hang around with chatterers.

(Read Proverbs 20:19)
Those dearly buy their own praise, who put confidence in a man because he speaks fairly.
