Proverbs 17:16-21
16To what purpose is there a priceH4242 in the handH3027 of a foolH3684 to get wisdomH2451, seeing [he] hath no sense?
17The friendH7453 loveth at all timesH6256, and a brotherH251 is bornH3205 for adversity.
18A senseless manH120 striketh handsH3709, becoming suretyH6148 for his neighbour.
19He loveth transgressionH6588 that loveth a quarrel; he that maketh highH1361 his gate seeketh destructionH7667.
20He that hath a perverseH6141 heartH3820 findeth no goodH2896; and he that shifteth about with his tongueH3956 falleth into evilH7451.
21He that begetteth a foolH3684 [doeth it] to his sorrow, and the fatherH1 of a vile [man] hath no joy.
