10 Lest he that heareth it put thee to shame, and thine infamy turn not away.
10 or the one who hears it may shame you and the charge against you will stand.
10 lest he who hears you bring shame upon you, and your ill repute have no end.
10 Word is sure to get around, and no one will trust you.
10 Lest he who hears it expose your shame, And your reputation be ruined.
10 Others may accuse you of gossip, and you will never regain your good reputation.
Matthew Henry's Commentary on Proverbs 25:10
Commentary on Proverbs 25:8-10
(Read Proverbs 25:8-10)
To be hasty in beginning strife, will bring into difficulties. War must at length end, and might better be prevented. It is so in private quarrels; do all thou canst to settle the matter.
