Proverbs 11:10-12

Amplified Bible, Classic Edition

¹⁰ When it goes well with the [uncompromisingly] righteous, the city rejoices, but when the wicked perish, there are shouts of joy.

¹¹ By the blessing of the influence of the upright and God’s favor [because of them] the city is exalted, but it is overthrown by the mouth of the wicked.

¹² He who belittles and despises his neighbor lacks sense, but a man of understanding keeps silent.
