Proverbs 17:19-23

¹⁹A lover of sin rejoices in strifes;

²⁰and the hard-hearted man comes not in for good. A man of a changeful tongue will fall into mischiefs;

²¹and the heart of a fool is grief to its possessor. A father rejoices not over an uninstructed son; but a wise son gladdens his mother.

²²A glad heart promotes health; but the bones of a sorrowful man dry up.

²³The ways of a man who unjustly receives gifts in his bosom do not prosper; and an ungodly man perverts the ways of righteousness.
