Sefer Hamidos - The Book of Traits

2

ב. עַל-יְדֵי נִבּוּל-פֶּה בָּא חֲנֻפָּה.

2

Through foul language comes adulation.

3

א. מִי שֶׁמְּדַבֵּר נִבּוּל-פֶּה, בְּיָדוּעַ שֶׁלִּבּוֹ חוֹשֵׁב מַחֲשָׁבוֹת אָוֶן. ג. בַּעֲווֹן נִבּוּל-פֶּה צָרוֹת וּגְזֵרוֹת מִתְחַדְּשׁוֹת, וּבַחוּרֵי יִשְׂרָאֵל מֵתִים, חַס וְשָׁלוֹם, וִיתוֹמִים וְאַלְמָנוֹת צוֹעֲקִים וְאֵינָם נַעֲנִין.

3

Someone who speaks foul language, it is certain that in his heart he thinks thoughts of sin. From the sin of foul language, troubles and [evil] decrees are renewed, and the young men of Israel die, G-d forbid, and orphans and widows cry out and are not answered.

4

ד. הַמְנַבֵּל פִּיו, אֲפִלּוּ חוֹתְמִין עָלָיו גְּזַר-דִּין שֶׁל שִׁבְעִים שָׁנָה לְטוֹבָה, הוֹפְכִין עָלָיו לְרָעָה, גַּם מַעֲמִיקִין לוֹ גֵיהִנֹּם, גַּם לַשּׁוֹמֵעַ וְשׁוֹתֵק.

4

One who defiles his speech, even if they have sealed for him a decree of seventy years for good, they reverse it to bad. Also, they deepen Hell for him. This also applies to one who hears [such speech] and remains silent.

5

ה. חָמוּר הַאוֹמֵר בְּפִיו מִן הָעוֹשֶׂה מַעֲשֶׂה.

5

More stringent is one who speaks verbally than the one who performs an action.
