5Whoever mocks the poor reproaches his Maker. He who is glad at calamity shall not be unpunished. 6Children’s children are the crown of old men; the glory of children is their parents.
7Excellent speech isn’t fitting for a fool, much less do lying lips fit a prince.
After · Proverbs 17:8–9
8A bribe is a precious stone in the eyes of him who gives it; wherever he turns, he prospers. 9He who covers an offense promotes love; but he who repeats a matter separates best friends.
