English Standard Version
13 Whoever (A)goes about slandering reveals secrets,
but he who is trustworthy in spirit keeps a thing covered.
14 Where there is (B)no guidance, a people falls,
(C)but in an abundance of counselors there is safety.
15 (D)Whoever puts up security for a stranger will surely suffer harm,
but he who hates striking hands in pledge is secure.
