7 Excellent speech is not becoming to a fool, Much less lying lips to a prince.

8 A present is a precious stone in the eyes of its possessor; Wherever he turns, he prospers.

9 He who covers a transgression seeks love, But he who repeats a matter separates friends.

10 Rebuke is more effective for a wise man Than a hundred blows on a fool.

11 An evil man seeks only rebellion; Therefore a cruel messenger will be sent against him.

12 Let a man meet a bear robbed of her cubs, Rather than a fool in his folly.

13 Whoever rewards evil for good, Evil will not depart from his house.

14 The beginning of strife is like releasing water; Therefore stop contention before a quarrel starts.

15 He who justifies the wicked, and he who condemns the just, Both of them alike are an abomination to the Lord.

16 Why is there in the hand of a fool the purchase price of wisdom, Since he has no heart for it?

17 A friend loves at all times, And a brother is born for adversity.

Proverbios 17:7 No convienen al necio las palabras elocuentes; mucho menos al príncipe los labios mentirosos.

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

7 No conviene al loco la altilocuencia; ¡cuánto menos al príncipe el labio mentiroso

7 Excellent speech becometh not a fool: much less do lying lips a prince.

Proverbios 17:7 Las palabras elocuentes no son apropiadas para el necio;
mucho menos las mentiras para el gobernante.

7 No va bien con los necios el lenguaje refinado,ni con los gobernantes, la mentira.

7 No conviene al necio la altilocuencia: ¡Cuánto menos al príncipe el labio mentiroso!

7 No conviene al loco la altilocuencia; ¡cuánto menos al príncipe el labio mentiroso!
