Proverbs 25:9


← Proverbs 25:8 Proverbs 25:9 (KJV) Proverbs 25:10 →
Go not forth hastily to strive, lest thou know not what to do in the end thereof, when thy neighbour hath put thee to shame.
Debate thy cause with thy neighbour himself; and discover not a secret to another:
Lest he that heareth it put thee to shame, and thine infamy turn not away.
