New Living Translation
Proverbs 17:7-10
7Eloquent words are not fitting for a fool; even less are lies fitting for a ruler.
8A bribe is like a lucky charm; whoever gives one will prosper!
9Love prospers when a fault is forgiven, but dwelling on it separates close friends.
10A single rebuke does more for a person of understanding than a hundred lashes on the back of a fool.
