Proverbs 17:12-14
International Standard Version
12 It’s better to meet a mother bear who has lost her cubs
than a fool in his stupidity.
13 The person who repays good with evil
will never see[a] evil leave his home.
14 Starting a quarrel is like spilling water—
so drop the dispute before it escalates.
