Revised Version 1895

Proverbs 17:7-10

7Excellent speech becometh not a fool: much less do lying lips a prince.

8A gift is as a precious stone in the eyes of him that hath it: whithersoever it turneth, it prospereth.

9He that covereth a transgression seeketh love: but he that harpeth on a matter separateth chief friends.

10A rebuke entereth deeper into one that hath understanding than an hundred stripes into a fool.
