- Children’s children are the crown of old men,
And the glory of children is their father. - Excellent speech is not becoming to a fool,
Much less lying lips to a prince. - He who covers a transgression seeks love,
But he who repeats a matter separates friends. - A friend loves at all times,
And a brother is born for adversity. - A merry heart does good, like medicine,
But a broken spirit dries the bones. - Even a fool is counted wise when he holds his peace;
When he shuts his lips, he is considered perceptive.
To do righteousness and justice
Is more acceptable to the Lord than sacrifice. He who covers his sins will not prosper,
But whoever confesses and forsakes them will have mercy.Next verse!With image
