Proverbs 17:20-22
Tree of Life Version
20 A perverse heart finds nothing good
a devious tongue falls into trouble.
21 Whoever fathers a fool gets grief.
There is no joy for the father of a disgraceful son.
22 A cheerful heart is good medicine,
but a crushed spirit dries up the bones.
Proverbs 17:20-22
New International Version
20 One whose heart is corrupt does not prosper;
one whose tongue is perverse falls into trouble.
21 To have a fool for a child brings grief;
there is no joy for the parent of a godless fool.(A)
