Matthew 12:34-36

New International Reader's Version

³⁴ You nest of poisonous snakes! How can you who are evil say anything good? Your mouths say everything that is in your hearts. ³⁵ A good man says good things. These come from the good that is stored up inside him. An evil man says evil things. These come from the evil that is stored up inside him. ³⁶ But here is what I tell you. On judgment day, everyone will have to account for every empty word they have spoken.
