Proverbs 17:12 DBY

¹⁰  A reproof entereth more deeply into him that hath understanding than a hundred stripes into a fool.

¹¹  An evil [man] seeketh only rebellion; but a cruel messenger shall be sent against him.

¹²  Let a bear robbed of her whelps meet a man rather than a fool in his folly.

¹³  Whoso rewardeth evil for good, evil shall not depart from his house.

¹⁴  The beginning of contention is [as] when one letteth out water; therefore leave off strife before it become vehement.
