Proverbs 17:13-15

21st Century King James Version

¹³ Whoso returneth evil for good, evil shall not depart from his house.

¹⁴ The beginning of strife is like the letting out of water: therefore break off contention before it is meddled with.

¹⁵ He that justifieth the wicked and he that condemneth the just, both alike are an abomination to the Lord.
