Proverbs 18:1-3

Douay-Rheims 1899 American Edition

18 He that hath a mind to depart from a friend seeketh occasions: he shall ever be subject to reproach.

² A fool receiveth not the words of prudence: unless thou say those things which are in his heart.

³ The wicked man when he is come into the depth of sins, contemneth: but ignominy and reproach follow him.
