Commentary on Proverbs 25:10
Lest the hearer reproach you, and your infamy not turn away. The Hebrew 'chasad' (reproach/put to shame) and 'dibah' (infamy/evil report) describe reputational damage from revealed secrets. If you expose others' secrets in disputes, hearers will distrust you - if you revealed their secret, you'll reveal mine. Trustworthiness requires confidence-keeping. Those who expose secrets lose others' trust. This warns: preserving reputation requires preserving others' confidences.
