Proverbs 25:8-10
New American Standard Bible

Chapter 25

8Do not go out hastily to argue your case; Otherwise, what will you do in the end, When your neighbor humiliates you? 9 Argue your case with your neighbor, And do not reveal the secret of another, 10Or one who hears it will put you to shame, And the evil report about you will not pass away.
King James Version

Chapter 25

8Go not forth hastily to strive, lest thou know not what to do in the end thereof, when thy neighbour hath put thee to shame.
9Debate thy cause with thy neighbour himself; and discover not a secret to another:
10Lest he that heareth it put thee to shame, and thine infamy turn not away.
Christian Standard Bible

Chapter 25

8Don’t take a matter to court hastily. Otherwise, what will you do afterward if your opponent humiliates you? 9Make your case with your opponent without revealing another’s secret;
10otherwise, the one who hears will disgrace you, and you’ll never live it down.
New Living Translation

Chapter 25

8don’t be in a hurry to go to court. For what will you do in the end if your neighbor deals you a shameful defeat?
9When arguing with your neighbor, don’t betray another person’s secret. 10Others may accuse you of gossip, and you will never regain your good reputation.
English Standard Version

New International Version

Chapter 25

8do not bring hastily to court, for what will you do in the end if your neighbor puts you to shame? 9If you take your neighbor to court, do not betray another’s confidence,
10or the one who hears it may shame you and the charge against you will stand.
New King James Version

Chapter 25

8 Do not go hastily to court; For what will you do in the end, When your neighbor has put you to shame? 9 Debate your case with your neighbor, And do not disclose the secret to another; 10Lest he who hears it expose your shame, And your reputation be ruined.
