Psalm 101:5, “Whoever slanders his neighbor in secret, I will put to silence; the one with haughty eyes and a proud heart, I will not endure.” This verse in most English translations may appear as though we should confront someone for speaking lies, it is more about not repeating gossip or remaining in the presence of the boastful. When no one is present to hear the gossip or the ranting of the arrogant, they will eventually be silent.
