Proverbs 12:8-10
New International Version
8 A person is praised according to their prudence,
and one with a warped(A) mind is despised.
9 Better to be a nobody and yet have a servant
than pretend to be somebody and have no food.
10 The righteous care for the needs of their animals,(B)
but the kindest acts of the wicked are cruel.
