An hypocrite with his mouth destroyeth his neighbour: but through knowledge shall the just be delivered.
When it goeth well with the righteous, the city rejoiceth: and when the wicked perish, there is shouting.

He that is void of wisdom despiseth his neighbour: but a man of understanding holdeth his peace.
