Proverbs 12:21-26

²¹Whatever befalleth to a just or rightwise man, it shall not make him sorry or sorrow; but wicked men shall be filled with evil.

²²False lips is abomination to the Lord; but they that do faithfully, please him.

²³A fell man covereth knowing; and the heart of unwise men stirreth folly.

²⁴The hand of strong men shall have lordship; but the hand that is slow, shall serve to tributes.

²⁵Mourning in the heart of a just or rightwise man shall make him meek; and he shall be made glad by a good word.

²⁶He that despiseth harm for a friend, is a just or rightwise man; but the way of wicked men shall deceive them.
