Proverbs 18:8
New Living Translation (NLT)
8 Rumors are dainty morsels
that sink deep into one’s heart.
It is hard to refuse to listen to gossip as it is to turn down a delicious dessert. Taking just one morsel of either one creates a taste for more. You can resist rumors in the same way a determined dieter resists candy - never open the box. If you don't nibble on the first bite of gossip, you can't take the second and the third.
