American King James Version
" Debate your cause with your neighbor himself; and discover not a secret to another: "
— Proverbs 25:9, American King James Version
“Debate thy cause with thy neighbour himself; and discover not a secret to another:”
“Debate thy cause with thy neighbor himself, And disclose not the secret of another; ”
“Debate your case with your neighbor, and don't betray the confidence of another;”
“When you argue a case with your neighbor, do not reveal the secret of another person,”
“Treat thy cause with thy friend, and discover not the secret to a stranger:”
“Have a talk with your neighbour himself about your cause, but do not give away the secret of another:”
“Debate thy cause with thy neighbour himself; and discover not a secret to another:”
Put not forth yourself in the presence of the king, and stand not in the place of great men:
For better it is that it be said to you, Come up here; than that you should be put lower in the presence of the prince whom your eyes have seen.
Go not forth hastily to strive, lest you know not what to do in the end thereof, when your neighbor has put you to shame.
Debate your cause with your neighbor himself; and discover not a secret to another:
Lest he that hears it put you to shame, and your infamy turn not away.
A word fitly spoken is like apples of gold in pictures of silver.
As an earring of gold, and an ornament of fine gold, so is a wise reprover on an obedient ear.
