Proverbs 11:11

Proverbs Of Solomon

¹⁰ When it goes well with the righteous, the city rejoices,
And when the wicked perish, there is joyful shouting.
¹¹ By the blessing of the upright a city is exalted,
But by the mouth of the wicked it is torn down.
¹² He who despises his neighbor lacks sense,
But a man of understanding keeps silent.

Lifted Up

Mouth of the Wicked
