Mishle 17:6-8

Orthodox Jewish Bible

⁶ Bnei banim are the ateret of zekenim; and the tiferet of banim are their avot.

⁷ Eloquent speech becometh not a naval (fool), much less do lying sfatayim (lips) a ruler.

⁸ A shochad (gift, bribe) is like a charm in the eynayim of him that hath it: wherever he turneth, he prospereth.
