Proverbs 17:12


Proverbs 17:11 Proverbs 17:12 (KJV) Proverbs 17:13
An evil [man] seeketh only rebellion: therefore a cruel messenger shall be sent against him.
Let a bear robbed of her whelps meet a man, rather than a fool in his folly.
Whoso rewardeth evil for good, evil shall not depart from his house.
