Proverbs 17:12-17 King James 2000 (KJ2000)

12. Let a bear robbed of her whelps meet a man, rather than a fool in his folly.

13. Whosoever rewards evil for good, evil shall not depart from his house.

14. The beginning of strife is like releasing water: therefore leave off contention, before a quarrel starts.

15. He that justifies the wicked, and he that condemns the just, even they both are abomination to the LORD.

16. Why is there a price in the hand of a fool to get wisdom, seeing he has no heart for it?

17. A friend loves at all times, and a brother is born for adversity.
