9 With his mouth the godless man destroys his neighbor, But the righteous will be delivered through knowledge.
10 When it goes well with the righteous, the city rejoices. When the wicked perish, there is shouting.
11 By the blessing of the upright, the city is exalted, But it is overthrown by the mouth of the wicked.
12 One who despises his neighbor is void of wisdom, But a man of understanding holds his peace.
13 One who brings gossip betrays a confidence, But one who is of a trustworthy spirit is one who keeps a secret.
