Proverbs 17:4-6

International Children’s Bible

⁴ An evil person listens to evil words.
    A liar pays attention to cruel words.

⁵ If you make fun of the poor,
    you insult God, who made them.
If you laugh at someone’s trouble,
    you will be punished.

⁶ Grandchildren are the reward of old people.
    And children are proud of their parents.
