Proverbs 11:12-31 - ESV - Whoever belittles his neighbor lacks sense, but...

12 Whoever ¹belittles his neighbor lacks sense, but a man of understanding remains silent.

13 Whoever ²goes about slandering reveals secrets, but he who is trustworthy in spirit keeps a thing covered.

14 Where there is ³no guidance, a people falls, ⁴but in an abundance of counselors there is safety.

15 ⁵Whoever puts up security for a stranger will surely suffer harm, but he who hates striking hands in pledge is secure.

16 ⁶A gracious woman gets honor, and ⁷violent men get riches.

17 ⁸A man who is kind benefits himself, but a cruel man hurts himself.

18 The wicked earns deceptive wages, but one who ⁹sows righteousness gets a sure reward.

19 Whoever is steadfast in righteousness ¹⁰will live, but ¹¹he who pursues evil will die.

20 Those of ¹²crooked heart are ¹³an abomination to the LORD, but those of ¹⁴blameless ways are ¹⁵his delight.

21 ¹⁶Be assured, ¹⁷an evil person will not go unpunished, but ¹⁸the offspring of the righteous will be delivered.

22 Like ¹⁹a gold ring in a pig's snout is a beautiful woman without discretion.

23 The desire of the righteous ends only in good; ²⁰the expectation of the wicked in wrath.

24 ²¹One gives ²²freely, yet grows all the richer; another withholds what he should give, and only suffers want.

25 ²³Whoever brings blessing ²⁴will be enriched, and ²⁵one who waters will himself be watered.

26 ²⁶The people curse him who holds back grain, but ²⁷a blessing is on the head of him who ²⁸sells it.

27 Whoever diligently seeks good seeks favor,^a but evil comes to ²⁹him who searches for it.

28 Whoever ³⁰trusts in his riches will fall, but the righteous will ³¹flourish like a green leaf.

29 Whoever ³²troubles his own household will ³³inherit the wind, and the fool will be servant to the wise of heart.

30 The fruit of the righteous is ³⁴a tree of life, and whoever ³⁵captures souls is wise.

31 If ³⁶the righteous is repaid on earth, how much more the wicked and the sinner!
