Proverbs

¹⁹He loveth transgression that loveth strife: He that raiseth high his gate seeketh destruction. ²⁰He that hath a wayward heart findeth no good; And he that hath a perverse tongue falleth into mischief. ²¹He that begetteth a fool doeth it to his sorrow; And the father of a fool hath no joy. ²²A cheerful heart is a good medicine; But a broken spirit drieth up the bones. ²³A wicked man receiveth a bribe out of the bosom, To pervert the ways of justice. ²⁴Wisdom is before the face of him that hath understanding; But the eyes of a fool are in the ends of the earth. ²⁵A foolish son is a grief to his father, And bitterness to her that bare him.
