Proverbs 12:8-10

New International Reader's Version

⁸ A person is praised for how wise they are.
    But people hate anyone who has a twisted mind.

⁹ Being nobody and having a servant
    is better than pretending to be somebody and having no food.

¹⁰ Those who do what is right take good care of their animals.
    But the kindest acts of those who do wrong are mean.
