Proverbs 17:20-22

Lexham English Bible

²⁰ He who is crooked of heart^[a] will not find goodness,
    and he who is perverse, by his tongue he will fall into calamity.
²¹ He who begets a fool, there is trouble for him;
    the father of a fool will not rejoice.
²² A cheerful heart is good medicine,
    but a downcast spirit will dry out bones.
