Proverbs 17:15-17

New Revised Standard Version Catholic Edition

¹⁵ One who justifies the wicked and one who condemns the righteous
    are both alike an abomination to the Lord.
¹⁶ Why should fools have a price in hand
    to buy wisdom, when they have no mind to learn?
¹⁷ A friend loves at all times,
    and kinsfolk are born to share adversity.
