Proverbs 17:4-6

New Revised Standard Version Updated Edition

⁴An evildoer listens to wicked lips,
    and a liar gives heed to a mischievous tongue.
⁵Those who mock the poor insult their Maker;
    those who are glad at calamity will not go unpunished.^(A)
⁶Grandchildren are the crown of the aged,
    and the glory of children is their parents.^(B)
