More on Dangers of Nivul Peh from DerechEmet

Awhile back I did a few posts about this subject and this morning I found an email from DerechEmet, who sends out various quotes, about the dangers of Nivul Peh.  Sorry I have not posted in awhile; hopefully I will be posting more often in the future...thanks for reading, Mashiach Now!!

Sefer HaMidot, chapter Nivul Peh:

[1] A person who speaks vulgarity, it is certain 
[literally, known] that his mind thinks evil thoughts.

[2] Through [the sin of] speaking obscene words, 
[the speaker] comes to [the additional sin of speaking 
forbidden kinds of] flattery.

[3] Through [the sin of] speaking obscenities [comes] 
new sorrows and [evil] decrees, and the young men 
of Israel die young, G_d forbid, and [even] orphans 
and widows cry out and are not heard.

[4] He who defiles his mouth by speaking obscenities, 
even if he had a sealed [Divine] decree of 70 good years, 
they are transformed to [70 Divinely decreed] bad [years], 
and Gehinom [Hell] is deepened for him. 

This also applies to he who heard [his fellow Jew speak 
obscenities] and he remained silent [instead of protesting 
against the obscenities, if and when he was able to protest].

[5] [The sin of] speaking [foul language] is more 
severe than [sins involving] physical actions.
