Proverbs 12:13
The wicked is snared by the transgression of his lips: but the just shall come out of trouble.
KJV
Propter peccata labiorum ruina proximat malo ; effugiet autem justus de angustia.
Vulgate
δι’ ἁμαρτίαν χειλέων ἐμπίπτει εἰς παγίδας ἁμαρτωλός, ἐκφεύγει δὲ ἐξ αὐτῶν δίκαιος. [1] ὁ βλέπων λεῖα ἐλεηθήσεται, ὁ δὲ συναντῶν ἐν πύλαις ἐκθλίψει ψυχάς.
LXX
In the transgression of the lips is a snare to the evil man; But the righteous shall come out of trouble.
