9. With his mouth the godless man destroyeth his neighbour: but through knowledge shall the righteous be delivered.
10. When it goeth well with the righteous, the city rejoiceth: and 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. He that despiseth his neighbour is void of wisdom: but a man of understanding holdeth his peace.
13. He that goeth about as a talebearer revealeth secrets: but he that is of a faithful spirit concealeth the matter.
