Proverbs 11:10-12

Evangelical Heritage Version

¹⁰ When the righteous prosper, a city rejoices,
and when the wicked perish, there is a shout of joy.
¹¹ Through the blessing of upright citizens, a city is raised up,
but by the mouth of the wicked, it is torn down.
¹² A person who lacks sense despises his neighbor,
but an understanding person keeps silent.
