New Testament

Proverbs 17:6-11 World Messianic Bible (WMB)

6. Children’s children are the crown of old men;the glory of children are their parents.

7. Arrogant speech isn’t fitting for a fool,much less do lying lips fit a prince.

8. A bribe is a precious stone in the eyes of him who gives it;wherever he turns, he prospers.

9. He who covers an offense promotes love;but he who repeats a matter separates best friends.

10. A rebuke enters deeper into one who has understandingthan a hundred lashes into a fool.

11. An evil man seeks only rebellion;therefore a cruel messenger shall be sent against him.
