Torah (learning) and other aspects of his holy speech.

By way of an illustrative example; two men appeared before the
Heavenly Court to be judged, either for good or for bad depending ."בֵל הַּבְגּ לָכּ 'ה תַבֲעוֹתּ" :)'ה ז"ט יֵלְשִׁמ( ביִתְכדְִכּ ,דֹאְמ אוּה
on the way they conducted their lives. Upon investigation they ירְֵבִדּ םיִמָעְפִלְו ,תוּליִכרְ םיִמָעְפִלְו ,ערָָה ןוֹשָׁל םיִמָעְפִלְו
found that both men learned the same gemara, the time they
spent learning was the same and their depth of study was the םַגּ םיִמָעְפִלְו ,םירִָבְדּ תַאָנוֹא םיִמָעְפִלְו ,תוּנָציֵל וֹא ,רקֶֶשׁ
same. One of these two men was accepted (into Heaven) very
graciously and the other was grudgingly accepted. This second םֵשׁ יוּצָמ םיִמָעְפִלְו ,הָפֻּנֲח ירְֵבִדּ םיִמָעְפִלְו ,םיִנָפּ תַנָבְּלַה
man was astounded (by the very different way he was treated). .לוֹדָגּ רוּסִּא ןֵכּ םַגּ אוּה זַעַל ןוֹשְׁלִבּ וּלִּפֲאַו ,הָלָטַּבְל םִיַמָשׁ
This is the world of absolute truth (Olam Haba). My depth of
study was the same as my friend’s. The time I spent and the effort תַאָנוֹאְו תקֶלֲֹחַמ הֶז ידְֵי לַע יוּצָמֶּשׁ ,סַעַכּ ירְֵבִדּ םיִמָעְפִלְו
I exerted learning this gemara was the same as his, and so why רַמָאֶשׁ הֶמַּבּ זָמּרְֻמ הֶז לָכְו .םירִוּסִּא הָמַּכּ דוֹעְו םירִָבְדּ
was there a difference (in our rewards)? They answered him:
“It is your own fault. Come and see for yourself. Your friend’s יֵנְפִּמ וּנְיַהְו ,"יִנֵבּוּסְי יַבקֲֵע ןוֲֹע" :)'ו ט"מ םיִלִּהְתּ( בוּתָכַּה
Torah learning was glowing (even) from a distance, but your .]םֶהיֵלֲע רֹבֲעַל יוּצָמֶּשׁ ,רוּבִּדַּה ַחֹכְבּ שֵׁיֶּשׁ ,םיִנָיְנִעָה יוּבּרִ
Torah learning is completely covered by the defilement that came
out of your mouth. Torah spoken by a mouth tainted by sin is not שׁדֶֹחְו .סֵנ ךְרֶדְֶבּ טַעְמִכּ אוּה ,דָחֶא ַעוּבָשׁ לֵצָנִּיֶּשׁ ןֵמַּדְּזִי םִאְו

This is true even regarding one who only sinned occasionally.
And all the more so (is this true) about you, since you routinely ,יַהלֱֹא' :הָלִּפְתַּה רַחַא רֵמוֹאֶשְׁכּ יאַדַּוְבוּ .הרָיִמְשַּׁה תַבוֹח
defiled your own speech with Lashon Hara, Rechilut, lies or other 'ה וּהֵעְיַּסְיֶּשׁ ,םֵלָשׁ בֵלְבּ הֶז שֵׁקַּבְמ אוּה ,'ערֵָמ יִנוֹשְׁל רֹצְנ
