Proverbs 17:19-21

New Revised Standard Version, Anglicised

¹⁹ One who loves transgression loves strife;
    one who builds a high threshold invites broken bones.
²⁰ The crooked of mind do not prosper,
    and the perverse of tongue fall into calamity.
²¹ The one who begets a fool gets trouble;
    the parent of a fool has no joy.
