Proverbs 17:7-9
1599 Geneva Bible
7 [a]High talk becometh not a fool, much less a lying talk a prince.
8 A reward is as a stone pleasant in the eyes of them that have it: it prospereth, whithersoever it [b]turneth.
9 He that covereth a transgression, seeketh love: but he that repeateth a matter, separateth the [c]prince.
