Proverbs 17:2-12 - ESV - A servant who deals wisely will rule over a son...

2 A servant who deals wisely will rule over ¹a son who acts shamefully and ²will share the inheritance as one of the brothers.

3 ³The crucible is for silver, and the furnace is for gold, ⁴and the LORD tests hearts.

4 An evildoer listens to wicked lips, and a liar gives ear to a mischievous tongue.

5 Whoever mocks the poor ⁵insults his Maker; he who is ⁶glad at calamity will not go ⁷unpunished.

6 ⁸Grandchildren are ⁹the crown of the aged, and the glory of children is their fathers.

7 Fine speech is not ¹⁰becoming to a fool; still less is ¹¹false speech to a prince.

8 ¹²A bribe is like a magic stone in the eyes of the one who gives it; wherever he turns he prospers.

9 Whoever ¹³covers an offense seeks love, but he who repeats a matter ¹⁴separates close friends.

10 A rebuke goes deeper into a man of understanding than a hundred blows into a fool.

11 An evil man seeks only rebellion, and ¹⁵a cruel messenger will be sent against him.

12 Let a man meet ¹⁶a she-bear robbed of her cubs ¹⁷rather than a fool in his folly.
