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.
17:14 The beginning of strife [is as] when one letteth out
water: therefore leave off contention, before it be meddled
with.
17:15 He that justifieth the wicked, and he that condemneth
the just, even they both [are] abomination to the LORD.
17:16 Wherefore [is there] a price in the hand of a fool to
get wisdom, seeing [he hath] no heart [to it]?
17:17 A friend loveth at all times, and a brother is born for
adversity.
17:18 A man void of understanding striketh hands, [and]
becometh surety in the presence of his friend.
17:19 He loveth transgression that loveth strife: [and] he
that exalteth his gate seeketh destruction.
17:20 He that hath a froward heart findeth no good: and he
that hath a perverse tongue falleth into mischief.
17:21 He that begetteth a fool [doeth it] to his sorrow: and
the father of a fool hath no joy.
17:22 A merry heart doeth good [like] a medicine: but a
broken spirit drieth the bones.
17:23 A wicked [man] taketh a gift out of the bosom to
pervert the ways of judgment.
17:24 Wisdom [is] before him that hath understanding; but the
eyes of a fool [are] in the ends of the earth.
17:25 A foolish son [is] a grief to his father, and
bitterness to her that bare him.
17:26 Also to punish the just [is] not good, [nor] to strike
princes for equity.
17:27 He that hath knowledge spareth his words: [and] a man
of understanding is of an excellent spirit.
17:28 Even a fool, when he holdeth his peace, is counted
wise: [and] he that shutteth his lips [is esteemed] a man of
understanding.
