Proverbs 17:4-8 Darby Translation 1890 (DARBY)

4. The evil-doer giveth heed to iniquitous lips; the liar giveth ear to a mischievous tongue.

5. Whoso mocketh a poor man reproacheth his Maker; he that is glad at calamity shall not be held innocent.

6. Children's children are the crown of old men; and the glory of children are their fathers.

7. Excellent speech becometh not a vile man; how much less do lying lips a noble!

8. A gift is a precious stone in the eyes of the possessor: whithersoever it turneth it prospereth.
