Proverbs 3:3

King James Version

³Let not mercy and truth forsake thee: bind them about thy neck; write them upon the table of thine heart:

¹⁷Those who are kind benefit themselves,
but the cruel bring ruin on themselves.

¹⁷The merciful man doeth good to his own soul: but he that is cruel troubleth his own flesh.

New International Version (NIV)
