Proverbs 11:12-14

English Standard Version

¹² Whoever ^(A)belittles his neighbor lacks sense,
    but a man of understanding remains silent.
¹³ Whoever ^(B)goes about slandering reveals secrets,
    but he who is trustworthy in spirit keeps a thing covered.
¹⁴ Where there is ^(C)no guidance, a people falls,
    ^(D)but in an abundance of counselors there is safety.
