3 verses in the King James Version. Word study for “speak” →
Wherefore, my beloved brethren, let every man be swift to hear, slow to speak, slow to wrath:
So speak ye, and so do, as they that shall be judged by the law of liberty.
Speak not evil one of another, brethren. He that speaketh evil of his brother, and judgeth his brother, speaketh evil of the law, and judgeth the law: but if thou judge the law, thou art not a doer of the law, but a judge.
