Proverbs 17:4-6
New International Reader's Version
4 Evil people listen to lies.
Lying people listen to evil.
5 Anyone who laughs at those who are poor makes fun of their Maker.
Anyone who is happy when others suffer will be punished.
6 Grandchildren are like a crown to older people.
And children are proud of their parents.
Proverbs 17:4-6

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.
