Proverbs 17:20-22
American Standard Version
20 He that hath a wayward heart findeth no good;
And he that hath a perverse tongue falleth into [a]mischief.
21 He that begetteth a fool doeth it to his sorrow;
And the father of a fool hath no joy.
22 A cheerful heart [b]is a good medicine;
But a broken spirit drieth up the bones.
