Proverbs 17:21-24

²¹He that begetteth a fool doeth it to his sorrow; And the father of a fool hath no joy.

²²A cheerful heart is a good medicine; But a broken spirit drieth up the bones.

²³A wicked man receiveth a bribe out of the bosom, To pervert the ways of justice.

²⁴Wisdom is before the face of him that hath understanding; But the eyes of a fool are in the ends of the earth.
