Proverbs 17:4-7

⁴A bad man hearkens to the tongue of transgressors: but a righteous man attends not to false lips.

⁵He that laughs at the poor provokes him that made him; and he that rejoices at the destruction of another shall not be held guiltless: but he that has compassion shall find mercy.

⁶Children's children are the crown of old men; and their fathers are the glory of children.

^6aThe faithful has the whole world full of wealth; but the faithless not even a farthing.

⁷Faithful lips will not suit a fool; nor lying lips a just man.
