Proverbs 17:21-24 Darby Translation 1890 (DARBY)

21. He that begetteth a fool doeth it to his sorrow, and the father of a vile man hath no joy.

22. A joyful heart promoteth healing; but a broken spirit drieth up the bones.

23. A wicked man taketh a gift out of the bosom, to pervert the paths of judgment.

24. Wisdom is before him that hath understanding; but the eyes of a fool are in the ends of the earth.
