Tree of Life Version
Proverbs 17:16-21
16Of what use is money in the hand of a fool since he has no intention of acquiring wisdom?
17A friend loves at all times, and a brother is born for adversity.
18A man lacking judgment shakes hands on a deal and puts up financial security for his neighbor.
19He who loves sin loves strife. One who builds a high gate invites destruction.
20A perverse heart finds nothing good a devious tongue falls into trouble.
21Whoever fathers a fool gets grief. There is no joy for the father of a disgraceful son.
