Proverbs 17:16-21

16Wherefore is there a priceH4242 in the handH3027 of a foolH3684 to getH7069 wisdomH2451, seeing he hath no heartH3820 to it?

17A friendH7453 lovethH157 at all timesH6256, and a brotherH251 is bornH3205 for adversityH6869.

18A manH120 voidH2638 of understandingH3820 strikethH8628 handsH3709, and becomethH6148 suretyH6161 in the presenceH6440 of his friendH7453.1

19He lovethH157 transgressionH6588 that lovethH157 strifeH4683: and he that exaltethH1361 his gateH6607 seekethH1245 destructionH7667.

20He that hath a perverseH6141 heartH3820 findethH4672 no goodH2896: and he that hath a perverseH2015 tongueH3956 fallethH5307 into mischiefH7451.2

21He that begettethH3205 a foolH3684 doeth it to his sorrowH8424: and the fatherH1 of a foolH5036 hath no joyH8055.
