Proverbs 12:25-27

Douay-Rheims 1899 American Edition

²⁵ Grief in the heart of a man shall bring him low, but with a good word he shall be made glad.

²⁶ He that neglecteth a loss for the sake of a friend, is just: but the way of the wicked shall deceive them.

²⁷ The deceitful man shall not find gain: but the substance of a just man shall be precious gold.
