Proverbs 12:8-10

New Revised Standard Version, Anglicised

⁸ One is commended for good sense,
    but a perverse mind is despised.
⁹ Better to be despised and have a servant,
    than to be self-important and lack food.
¹⁰ The righteous know the needs of their animals,
    but the mercy of the wicked is cruel.
