Proverbs 11:11-13

New American Standard Bible 1995

¹¹ By the blessing of the upright a city is exalted,
But by the mouth of the wicked it is torn down.
¹² He who despises his neighbor lacks ^[a]sense,
But a man of understanding keeps silent.
¹³ He ^(A)who goes about as a talebearer reveals secrets,
But he who is ^[b]trustworthy ^(B)conceals a matter.
