Proverbs 29:7-9

Jubilee Bible 2000

⁷ ¶ The righteous considers the cause of the poor, but the wicked does not understand wisdom.

⁸ ¶ Scornful men bring a city into a snare, but wise men turn away wrath.

⁹ ¶ If a wise man contends with a foolish man, whether he rages or laughs, there is no rest.
