Proverbs 17:9-11
World English Bible

9 He who covers an offense promotes love;
    but he who repeats a matter separates best friends.
10 A rebuke enters deeper into one who has understanding
    than a hundred lashes into a fool.
11 An evil man seeks only rebellion;
    therefore a cruel messenger shall be sent against him.

    the messenger of death will be sent against them.
