בִּכְלָל זֶה יְבֹאַר אִסּוּר לָשׁוֹן הָרָע מִבֵּין אָדָם למָּקוֹם. וְתִקּוּן עֵל חֵטְא זֶה, וּבוֹ י"ב סְעִיפִים.

**Chofetz Chaim, Silverstein translation:**
In this principle there will be explained the issur of lashon hara between man and his Maker, and the tikkun [correction] for this sin. It contains twelve sections.
