8 The righteous is delivered out of trouble,and the wicked cometh in his stead.
9 A hypocrite with his mouth destroyeth his neighbor:but through knowledge shall the just 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 is void of wisdom despiseth his neighbor:but a man of understanding holdeth his peace.
13 A talebearer revealeth secrets:but he that is of a faithful spirit concealeth the matter.
14 Where no counsel is, the people fall:but in the multitude of counselors there is safety.
