Proverbs 11:9-11

Modern English Version

⁹ A hypocrite with his mouth destroys his neighbor,
    but through knowledge the just will be delivered.

¹⁰ When it goes well with the righteous, the city rejoices;
    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.
