Proverbs 17:4-6
Authorized (King James) Version
4 A wicked doer giveth heed to false lips;
and a liar giveth ear to a naughty tongue.
5 Whoso mocketh the poor reproacheth his Maker:
and he that is glad at calamities shall not be unpunished.
6 Children’s children are the crown of old men;
and the glory of children are their fathers.
Proverbs 17:4-6
New International Version
4 A wicked person listens to deceitful lips;
a liar pays attention to a destructive tongue.
5 Whoever mocks the poor(A) shows contempt for their Maker;(B)
whoever gloats over disaster(C) will not go unpunished.(D)
6 Children’s children(E) are a crown to the aged,
and parents are the pride of their children.
