Proverbs 17:12-15

¹²Let a bear robbed of her whelps meet a man, Rather than a fool in his folly.

¹³Whoso rewardeth evil for good, Evil shall not depart from his house.

¹⁴The beginning of strife is as when one letteth out water: Therefore leave off contention, before it be meddled with.

¹⁵He that justifieth the wicked, and he that condemneth the just, Even they both are abomination to the Lord.
