Proverbs 11:9-11
Contemporary English Version
9 Dishonest people use gossip
to destroy their neighbors;
good people are protected
by their own good sense.
10 When honest people prosper
and the wicked disappear,
the whole city celebrates.
11 Good people bring prosperity
to their city,
but deceitful liars
can destroy a city.
Proverbs 11:9-11
New International Version
9 With their mouths the godless destroy their neighbors,
but through knowledge the righteous escape.(A)
