Wisdom of Solomon 1:10-13

¹⁰ For the ear of jealousy heareth all things: and the noise of murmurings is not hid.

¹¹ Therefore beware of murmuring, which is unprofitable; and refrain your tongue from backbiting: for there is no word so secret, that shall go for nought: and the mouth that belieth slayeth the soul.

¹² Seek not death in the error of your life: and pull not upon yourselves destruction with the works of your hands.

¹³ For God made not death: neither hath he pleasure in the destruction of the living.
