Proverbs 17:19-21
International Standard Version
19 The person who loves transgression loves strife;
the person who builds a high gate invites destruction.
20 The person whose mind[a] is perverse does not find good,
and anyone with perverted speech falls into trouble.
21 The man who fathers a fool does so to his sorrow—
the father of a fool has no joy.
