Proverbs [Sayings] 17:13-16

¹³Whoever rewards evil for good, evil shall not depart from his house.

¹⁴The beginning of strife is like breaching a dam, therefore stop contention before quarreling breaks out.

¹⁵He who justifies the wicked, and he who condemns the upright, both of them alike are an abomination to Adonai .

¹⁶Why is there money in the hand of a fool to buy wisdom, since he has no understanding?
