11 By the blessing of the upright the city is exalted: but it is overthrown by the mouth of the wicked.
11 Through the blessing of the upright a city is exalted, but by the mouth of the wicked it is destroyed.
11 By the blessing of the upright a city is exalted, but by the mouth of the wicked it is overthrown.
11 When right-living people bless the city, it flourishes; evil talk turns it into a ghost town in no time.
11 By the blessing of the upright the city is exalted, But it is overthrown by the mouth of the wicked.
11 Upright citizens are good for a city and make it prosper, but the talk of the wicked tears it apart.
