Proverbs 17:2-6

² A prudent servant will rule over a disgraceful son
    and will share the inheritance as one of the family.

³ The crucible for silver and the furnace for gold,^(A)
    but the Lord tests the heart.^(B)

⁴ A wicked person listens to deceitful lips;
    a liar pays attention to a destructive tongue.

⁵ Whoever mocks the poor^(C) shows contempt for their Maker;^(D)
    whoever gloats over disaster^(E) will not go unpunished.^(F)

⁶ Children’s children^(G) are a crown to the aged,
    and parents are the pride of their children.
