Proverbs 17:6 ASV

⁴  An evil-doer giveth heed to wicked lips; 'And' a liar giveth ear to a mischievous tongue.

⁵  Whoso mocketh the poor reproacheth his Maker; 'And' he that is glad at calamity shall not be unpunished.

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

⁷  Excellent speech becometh not a fool; Much less do lying lips a prince.

⁸  A bribe is 'as' a precious stone in the eyes of him that hath it; Whithersoever it turneth, it prospereth.
