Proverbs 17:6-8

Jubilee Bible 2000

⁶ ¶ Children’s children are the crown of old men, and the honour of the children are their fathers.

⁷ ¶ Excellent speech is not suitable for a fool: much less lying lips for a prince!

⁸ ¶ A bribe is as a precious stone in the eyes of him that has it; wherever it turns, it prospers.
