Proverbs 11:13

Proverbs 11:13 in 10 English translations. Each links through to the full chapter for context.

New International Version (NIV)

13A gossip betrays a confidence,

but a trustworthy person keeps a secret.

13One who goes about as a slanderer reveals secrets,

But one who is trustworthy conceals a matter.

13He who goes about as a gossip reveals secrets,

But he who is trustworthy and faithful keeps a matter hidden.

13A gossip reveals a secret,

but a trustworthy person keeps a confidence.

13He that goeth about as a tale-bearer revealeth secrets;

But he that is of a faithful spirit concealeth a matter.

13Hee that goeth about as a slanderer, discouereth a secret: but hee that is of a faithfull heart concealeth a matter.

13One who brings gossip betrays a confidence,

but one who is of a trustworthy spirit is one who keeps a secret.

13Those who talk about others will tell secrets.

But those who can be trusted keep the secrets of others.

13If a person talks too much about other people,

he will soon tell their secrets.

But someone that you can trust

will not tell your secrets to other people.

13A busybody is revealing secret counsel, || And the faithful of spirit is covering the matter.
