PROVERBS 11:13 — KING JAMES VERSION 0 0
“A talebearer revealeth secrets: but he that is of a faithful spirit concealeth the matter.”
Trustworthiness: A gossip betrays a confidence, but a trustworthy person keeps a secret. The gossip (halakh rachil) reveals secrets. The trustworthy person (ne'eman ru'ach) conceals them. This indicates that one mark of character is whether one can be trusted with others' confidences. The reliable person protects what is shared in trust.
