Proverbs 11:13–14

13 A gossip betrays a confidence,

but a trustworthy person keeps a secret.

14 For lack of guidance a nation falls,

but victory is won through many advisers.

13 Whoever goes about slandering reveals secrets,

but he who is trustworthy in spirit keeps a thing covered.

14 Where there is no guidance, a people falls,

but in an abundance of counselors there is safety.

13 A talebearer revealeth secrets:

But he that is of a faithful spirit concealeth the matter.

14 Where no counsel is, the people fall:

But in the multitude of counsellers there is safety.

13 A gossip goes around telling secrets,

but those who are trustworthy can keep a confidence.

14 Without wise leadership, a nation falls;

there is safety in having many advisers.

13 A talebearer reveals secrets,

But he who is of a faithful spirit conceals a matter.

14 Where there is no counsel, the people fall;

But in the multitude of counselors there is safety.

13 Gossips can’t keep secrets,

but a trustworthy person can.

14 Without leadership a nation falls,

but lots of good advice will save it.

13 He that goeth about as a tale-bearer revealeth secrets;

But he that is of a faithful spirit concealeth a matter.

14 Where no wise guidance is, the people falleth;

But in the multitude of counsellors there is safety.

13 He that goeth about talebearing revealeth secrets; but he that is of a faithful spirit concealeth the matter.

14 Where no advice is, the people fall; but in the multitude of counsellors there is safety.

13 Whoever gossips gives away secrets, 

but whoever is trustworthy in spirit can keep a secret. 

14 A nation will fall when there is no direction, 

but with many advisers there is victory. 

13 A gossip goes around revealing a secret,

but a trustworthy person keeps a confidence.

14 Without guidance, people fall,

but with many counselors there is deliverance.

13 A gossip goes about telling secrets,

but one who is trustworthy in spirit keeps a confidence.

14 Where there is no guidance, a nation falls,

but in an abundance of counselors there is safety.

13 Those who talk about others tell secrets.

But those who can be trusted keep things to themselves.

14 Without the guidance of good leaders a nation falls.

But many good advisers can save it.

13 He who goes about as a talebearer reveals secrets,

But he who is trustworthy conceals a matter.

14 Where there is no guidance the people fall,

But in abundance of counselors there is victory.
