Proverbs 25:8-10
Legacy Standard Bible
8 Do not go out (A)hastily to plead your case;
Lest, what will you do in [a]the end,
When your neighbor humiliates you?
9 (B)Plead your case with your neighbor,
And (C)do not reveal the secret of another,
10 Lest he who hears it bring disgrace upon you,
And the bad report about you will not turn away.

don’t betray another person’s secret.

and you will never regain your good reputation.
