1. Alas, the idle talker's side is evil,
His speech defiles honor when he spews.

2. You see in him a slanderous, spiteful liar,
Obsequious when jesting and playing.

3. He distracts a person's thoughts with every vanity,
Leading to abandoning prayer and urging evil.

4. He eliminates the effort of those seeking salvation,
Extinguishing their fervor, persisting in wickedness.
