Proverbs 17:9-11
Tree of Life Version
9 Whoever covers up an offense seeks love.[a]
Whoever repeats a matter separates close friends.
10 A rebuke makes a greater impression on a discerning person
than a hundred lashes on a fool.
11 An evil man seeks only rebellion,
and so a cruel messenger will be sent against him.
