Proverbs 17:6


Proverbs 17:5 Proverbs 17:6 (KJV) Proverbs 17:7
Whoso mocketh the poor reproacheth his Maker: [and] he that is glad at calamities shall not be unpunished.
Children's children [are] the crown of old men; and the glory of children [are] their fathers.
Excellent speech becometh not a fool: much less do lying lips a prince.
