Proverbs 17:19-25

¹⁹He that bethinketh discords, loveth chidings; and he that enhanceth his mouth, seeketh falling.

²⁰He that is of wayward heart, shall not find good; and he that turneth the tongue, shall fall into evil.

²¹A fool is born in his shame; but neither the father shall be glad in a fool.

²²A joyful soul maketh liking age; a sorrowful spirit maketh dry bones.

²³A wicked man taketh gifts from the bosom, to mis-turn the paths of doom.

²⁴Wisdom shineth in the face of a prudent man; the eyes of fools be in the ends of earth.

²⁵A fond or foolish son is the ire or the wrath of the father, and the sorrow of the mother that bare him.
