Context of Proverbs 22:10

8He who sows iniquity will reap sorrow, And the rod of his anger will fail. 9He who has a generous eye will be blessed, For he gives of his bread to the poor. Cast out the scoffer, and contention will leave; Yes, strife and reproach will cease. 11He who loves purity of heart And has grace on his lips, The king will be his friend. 12The eyes of the Lord preserve knowledge, But He overthrows the words of the faithless.
