Proverbs 17:13-18

¹³If someone does something evil in return for something good being done to him, evil/trouble will never leave that person's family.

¹⁴Starting a quarrel is like allowing water to start to leak out of a dam; they both need to be stopped before they get worse.

¹⁵There are two things that Yahweh hates: ◄Condemning innocent people/Saying that people who have done nothing wrong must be punished►, and declaring that people who have done wicked things should not be punished.

¹⁶It is useless to allow foolish people RHQ to try to become wise by paying for it, because they do not have enough good sense to become wise.

¹⁷Friends love others all the time, and relatives are able to help us when we have troubles.

¹⁸If someone borrows money from another person, it is foolish for you to promise IDM that you will pay the money back if that other person is unable to pay back the money that he borrowed.
