In context
6Many court the favor of kings; But every bad man becomes a reproach to another man.
7Every one who hates his poor brother Shall also be far from friendship. Good understanding will draw near to them that know it, And a sensible man will find it. He that does much harm perfects mischief; And he that uses provoking words shall not escape.
— Proverbs 19:8 —
9A false witness shall not be unpunished; And whosoever shall kindle mischief shall perish by it.
10Delight does not suit a fool, Nor is it seemly if a servant should begin to rule with haughtiness.
