Proverbs 17:4-7 New Living Translation (NLT)

4. Wrongdoers eagerly listen to gossip;liars pay close attention to slander.

5. Those who mock the poor insult their Maker;those who rejoice at the misfortune of others will be punished.

6. Grandchildren are the crowning glory of the aged;parents are the pride of their children.

7. Eloquent words are not fitting for a fool;even less are lies fitting for a ruler.
