Proverbs 11:12-22
12Whoever shows contempt for his neighbor lacks judgment, but a man of understanding remains silent.
13A gossip reveals a secret,but a trustworthy person keeps a confidence.
14For lack of guidance, a nation falls,but with many counselors comes deliverance.
15He who puts up security for a stranger will surely suffer,but the one who hates indebtedness is secure.
16A gracious woman attains honor,but ruthless men gain only wealth.
17A kind man benefits himself,but a cruel man brings trouble on himself.
18The wicked man earns an empty wage,but he who sows righteousness reaps a true reward.
19Genuine righteousness leads to life,but the pursuit of evil brings death.
20The perverse in heart are an abomination to the LORD,but the blameless in their walk are His delight.
21Be assured that the wicked will not go unpunished,but the offspring of the righteous will escape.
22Like a gold ring in a pig’s snoutis a beautiful woman who lacks discretion.
