Proverbs 12:8-10
New King James Version
8 A man will be commended according to his wisdom,
(A)But he who is of a perverse heart will be despised.
9 (B)Better is the one who is [a]slighted but has a servant,
Than he who honors himself but lacks bread.
10 (C)A righteous man regards the life of his animal,
But the tender mercies of the wicked are cruel.
