Proverbs 17:9-11
Douay-Rheims 1899 American Edition
9 He that concealeth a transgression. seeketh friendships: he that repeateth it again, separateth friends.
10 A reproof availeth more with a wise man, than a hundred stripes with a fool.
11 An evil man always seeketh quarrels: but a cruel angel shall be sent against him.

Proverbs 17:9-11
New International Version
9 Whoever would foster love covers over an offense,(A)
but whoever repeats the matter separates close friends.(B)
10 A rebuke impresses a discerning person
more than a hundred lashes a fool.
11 Evildoers foster rebellion against God;
the messenger of death will be sent against them.
