Proverbs 11:10-12

New International Reader's Version

¹⁰ When those who do right succeed, their city is glad.
    When those who do wrong die, people shout for joy.

¹¹ The blessing of honest people builds up a city.
    But the words of sinners destroy it.

¹² Whoever makes fun of their neighbor has no sense.
    But the one who has understanding controls their tongue.
