Contrast the Upright and the Wicked 17:01 .. Better is a dry morsel and quietness with it than a house full of feasting with strife. 17:02 .. A servant who acts wisely will rule over a son who acts shamefully, and will share in the inheritance among brothers. 17:03 .. The refining pot is for silver and the furnace for gold, but the Lord tests hearts. 17:04 .. An evildoer listens to wicked lips; a liar pays attention to a destructive tongue. 17:05 .. He who mocks the poor taunts his Maker; he who rejoices at calamity will not go unpunished. 17:06 .. Grandchildren are the crown of old men, and the glory of sons is their fathers. 17:07 .. Excellent speech is not fitting for a fool, much less are lying lips to a prince. 17:08 .. A bribe is a charm in the sight of its owner; wherever he turns, he prospers. 17:09 .. He who conceals a transgression seeks love, but he who repeats a matter separates intimate friends. 17:10 .. A rebuke goes deeper into one who has understanding than a hundred blows into a fool. 17:11 .. A rebellious man seeks only evil, so a cruel messenger will be sent against him. 17:12 .. Let a man meet a bear robbed of her cubs, rather than a fool in his folly. 17:13 .. He who returns evil for good, evil will not depart from his house. 17:14 .. The beginning of strife is like letting out water, so abandon the quarrel before it breaks out. 17:15 .. He who justifies the wicked and he who condemns the righteous, both of them alike are an abomination to the Lord. 17:16 .. Why is there a price in the hand of a fool to buy wisdom, when he has no sense? 17:17 .. A friend loves at all times, and a brother is born for adversity.17:18 .. A man lacking in sense pledges and becomes guarantor in the presence of his neighbor. 17:19 .. He who loves transgression loves strife; he who raises his door seeks destruction. 17:20 .. He who has a crooked mind finds no good, and he who is perverted in his language falls into evil. 17:21 .. He who sires a fool does so to his sorrow, and the father of a fool has no joy. 17:22 .. A joyful heart is good medicine, but a broken spirit dries up the bones. 17:23 .. A wicked man receives a bribe from the bosom to pervert the ways of justice. 17:24 .. Wisdom is in the presence of the one who has understanding, but the eyes of a fool are on the ends of the earth. 17:25 .. A foolish son is a grief to his father and bitterness to her who bore him.17:26 .. It is also not good to fine the righteous, nor to strike the noble for their uprightness. 17:27 .. He who restrains his words has knowledge, and he who has a cool spirit is a man of understanding. 17:28 .. Even a fool, when he keeps silent, is considered wise; when he closes his lips, he is considered prudent. ...
