Answer 1

Proverbs 30:33
For as churning the milk produces butter, and as twisting the nose produces blood, so stirring up anger produces strife."
Proverbs 16:28
A perverse man stirs up dissension, and a gossip separates close friends.
Proverbs 11:13
A gossip betrays a confidence, but a trustworthy man keeps a secret.
Proverbs 20:19
A gossip betrays a confidence; so avoid a man who talks too much.
Proverbs 26:20
Without wood a fire goes out; without gossip a quarrel dies down.
Romans 1:28-30
28Furthermore, since they did not think it worthwhile to retain the knowledge of God, he gave them over to a depraved mind, to do what ought not to be done. 29They 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, 30slanderers, God-haters, insolent, arrogant and boastful; they invent ways of doing evil; they disobey their parents;
2 Corinthians 12:20
20For I am afraid that when I come I may not find you as I want you to be, and you may not find me as you want me to be. I fear that there may be quarreling, jealousy, outbursts of anger, factions, slander, gossip, arrogance and disorder.

I'll leave it at that, but there's so much more. You can just look at God's command to love and know that He doesn't want the opposite of that to happen, like the verse that says how blessed it is for brother's to live in unity (Psalm 133:1)

Answer 2

"Thou shalt not bear false witness" - One of the Ten Commandments.

Answer 3

"Thou shall not kill', comes to mind. There's also something in there about not coveting, and "judge not lest you be judged."

Answer 4

"That which is hateful to you, do not do to your fellow." (Hillel the Elder)

This sentence encapsulates it all.
