'Covering' in the Bible

Whoso is covering hatred with lying lips, And whoso is bringing out an evil report is a fool.

A busybody is revealing secret counsel, And the faithful of spirit is covering the matter.

The fool -- in a day is his anger known, And the prudent is covering shame.

Whoso is covering transgression is seeking love, And whoso is repeating a matter Is separating a familiar friend.

Whoso is covering his transgressions prospereth not, And he who is confessing and forsaking hath mercy.
