Proverbs 17:5-7

New King James Version

^5 (A)He who mocks the poor reproaches his Maker;
^(B)He who is glad at calamity will not go unpunished.

^6 (C)Children’s children are the crown of old men,
And the glory of children is their father.

⁷ Excellent speech is not becoming to a fool,
Much less lying lips to a prince.
