Proverbs 17 - ESV & NIV

Grandchildren are the crown of the aged, and the glory of children is their fathers.Children’s children are a crown to the aged, and parents are the pride of their children.
Fine speech is not becoming to a fool; still less is false speech to a prince.Eloquent lips are unsuited to a godless fool— how much worse lying lips to a ruler!
Whoever covers an offense seeks love, but he who repeats a matter separates close friends.Whoever would foster love covers over an offense, but whoever repeats the matter separates close friends.
A friend loves at all times, and a brother is born for adversity.A friend loves at all times, and a brother is born for a time of adversity.
A joyful heart is good medicine, but a crushed spirit dries up the bones.A cheerful heart is good medicine, but a crushed spirit dries up the bones.
Even a fool who keeps silent is considered wise; when he closes his lips, he is deemed intelligent.Even fools are thought wise if they keep silent, and discerning if they hold their tongues.
