Proverbs 17:7-10
7Eloquent words are not appropriate on a fool’s lips; how much worse are lies for a ruler.
8A bribe seems like a magic stone to its owner; wherever he turns, he succeeds.
9Whoever conceals an offense promotes love, but whoever gossips about it separates friends.
10A rebuke cuts into a perceptive person more than a hundred lashes into a fool.
