Proverbs 17:10-13 New Living Translation (NLT)

10. A single rebuke does more for a person of understandingthan a hundred lashes on the back of a fool.

11. Evil people are eager for rebellion,but they will be severely punished.

12. It is safer to meet a bear robbed of her cubsthan to confront a fool caught in foolishness.

13. If you repay good with evil,evil will never leave your house.
