The Proverbs
17:1 Better is a dry morsel, and quietness therewith, than an house
full of sacrifices with strife.
17:2 A wise servant shall have rule over a son that causeth shame, and
shall have part of the inheritance among the brethren.
17:3 The fining pot is for silver, and the furnace for gold: but the
LORD trieth the hearts.
17:4 A wicked doer giveth heed to false lips; and a liar giveth ear to
a naughty tongue.
17:5 Whoso mocketh the poor reproacheth his Maker: and he that is glad
at calamities shall not be unpunished.
17:6 Children's children are the crown of old men; and the glory of
children are their fathers.
17:7 Excellent speech becometh not a fool: much less do lying lips a
prince.
17:8 A gift is as a precious stone in the eyes of him that hath it:
whithersoever it turneth, it prospereth.
17:9 He that covereth a transgression seeketh love; but he that
repeateth a matter separateth very friends.
17:10 A reproof entereth more into a wise man than an hundred stripes
into a fool.
17:11 An evil man seeketh only rebellion: therefore a cruel messenger
shall be sent against him.
17:12 Let a bear robbed of her whelps meet a man, rather than a fool
in his folly.
17:13 Whoso rewardeth evil for good, evil shall not depart from his
house.
