Gossip

Rom 1:29 "They have become filled with every kind of wickedness, evil, greed and depravity. They are full of envy, murder, strife, deceit and malice. They are gossips"

Pr 11:13 "A gossip betrays a confidence, but a trustworthy man keeps a secret."

Pr 20:19 "A gossip betrays a confidence; so avoid a man who talks too much."

Pr 25:9 "If you argue your case with a neighbor, do not betray another man’s confidence"

Pr 17:9 "He who covers over an offense promotes love, but whoever repeats the matter separates close friends."

Woman are particularly prone to gossiping. Thus they are to be kept busy being useful and productive else "they learn to be idle, wandering about from house to house, and not only idle but also gossips and busybodies, saying things which they ought not." 1Tim 5:13

Among other things, Gossips violate one's God-given right to privacy
