Proverbs 17:5

Proverbs Of Solomon

⁴ An evildoer listens to wicked lips;
A liar pays attention to a destructive tongue.
⁵ He who mocks the poor taunts his Maker;
He who rejoices at calamity will not go unpunished.
⁶ Grandchildren are the crown of old men,
And the glory of sons is their fathers.

Reproaches His Maker

Will Not Go Unpunished

Insult Their Maker
