It's one of the Ten Commandments-Do not take the name of the Lord God in vain! If you don't use the Lord's name you're good to go.

No rotten talk should come from your mouth, but only what is good for the building up of someone in need, in order to give grace to those who hear.
Ephesians 4:29
And coarse and foolish talking or crude joking are not suitable, but rather giving thanks.
Ephesians 5:4
But now you must also put away all the following: anger, wrath, malice, slander, and filthy language from your mouth.
Colossians 3:8

It says it in the book of 2 Timothy Chapter 2, verse 6 (among other places). The Bible says "But shun profane and vain babblings: for they will increase unto more ungodliness." The word profane is where we get profanity, which is cursing. If you need more references just let me know.
God Bless

Exodus 20:7
3) “You shall not misuse the name of the LORD your God, for the LORD will not hold anyone guiltless who misuses His name.” This is a command against taking the name of the Lord in vain. We are not to treat God’s name lightly. We are to show reverence to God by only mentioning Him in respectful and honoring ways.

Right next to the verse that says if a man is caught raping a woman he has to pay her father a bag of silver in compensation.

In Colossians it says 'Let no unwholesome word proceed from your mouth."
AND it is obvious, living a holy life would not include unholy things, like - cursing & profanity.

All over the place. One example: “put off all these; anger, wrath, malice, blasphemy, filthy communication out of your mouth” (Colossians 3:8).
