Proverbs 17:4-5
A wicked person listens to deceitful lips;
a liar pays attention to a destructive tongue.
Whoever mocks the poor shows contempt for their Maker;
whoever gloats over disaster will not go unpunished.
Two abominations to God
Proverbs 17:15
Acquitting the guilty and condemning the innocent —
the Lord detests them both.
Why some remain fools
Proverbs 17:16
Why should fools have money in hand to buy wisdom,
when they are not able to understand it?
How to know true friends
Proverbs 17:17
A friend loves at all times,
and a brother is born for a time of adversity.
Seven things that cause sorrow
Proverbs 17:18-21
One who has no sense shakes hands in pledge
and puts up security for a neighbour.
Whoever loves a quarrel loves sin;
whoever builds a high gate invites destruction.
One whose heart is corrupt does not prosper;
one whose tongue is perverse falls into trouble.
To have a fool for a child brings grief;
there is no joy for the parent of a godless fool.
