Proverbs 17:19


Proverbs 17:18 Proverbs 17:19 (KJV) Proverbs 17:20
A man void of understanding striketh hands, [and] becometh surety in the presence of his friend.
He loveth transgression that loveth strife: [and] he that exalteth his gate seeketh destruction.
He that hath a froward heart findeth no good: and he that hath a perverse tongue falleth into mischief.
