Proverbs 17:4-6

New Catholic Bible

⁴ An evildoer listens eagerly to wicked lips,
    and a liar pays heed to a slanderous tongue.
⁵ Anyone who mocks the poor insults their Creator;^[a]
    whoever gloats at another’s distress will not go unpunished.
⁶ Grandchildren are the crown of the aged,
    and the glory of children is their parents.
