Proverbs 17:22-24

Douay-Rheims 1899 American Edition

²² A joyful mind maketh age flourishing: a sorrowful spirit drieth up the bones.

²³ The wicked man taketh gifts out of the bosom, that he may pervert the paths of judgment.

²⁴ Wisdom shineth in the face of the wise: the eyes of fools are in the ends of the earth.
