The power of silence in scripture is a theme that reflects the importance of being still and listening to God, as well as the wisdom of restraining one’s words and avoiding sin.
Psalm 46:10: "Be still, and know that I am God. I will be exalted among the nations, I will be exalted in the earth!"1
Proverbs 17:28: "Even a fool who keeps silent is considered wise; when he closes his lips, he is deemed intelligent."
