Proverbs 25:7-10
English Standard Version
7 for (A)it is better to be told, “Come up here,”
than to be put lower in the presence of a noble.
What your eyes have seen
8 (B)do not hastily bring into court,[a]
for[b] what will you do in the end,
when your neighbor puts you to shame?
9 (C)Argue your case with your neighbor himself,
and do not reveal another's secret,
10 lest he who hears you bring shame upon you,
and your ill repute have no end.
