Proverbs 17:13-17
13 Whoso rewardeth evil for good, evil shall not depart from his house.
14 The beginning of strife (angry arguments) is as when one letteth out water (like breaching a dam): therefore leave off (to disperse, reject, cast off) contention (little quarrels), before it be meddled with (gatherers volume).
15 He that justifieth the wicked, and he that condemneth the just, even they both are abomination to the Lord.
16 Wherefore is there a price in the hand of a fool to get wisdom, seeing he hath no heart to it?
17 A friend loveth at all times, and a brother is born for adversity.
