Proverbs 17:12-15 Tree Of Life Version (TLV)

12. Better to meet a bear robbed of her cubs than to deal with a fool in his folly.

13. Whoever rewards evil for good— evil will never leave his house.

14. The beginning of strife is like letting out water— so stop a quarrel before it breaks out.

15. Acquitting the wicked and condemning the righteous: both are an abomination to Adonai.
