Proverbs 17:24-26

New International Version - UK

²⁴ A discerning person keeps wisdom in view,
    but a fool’s eyes wander to the ends of the earth.

²⁵ A foolish son brings grief to his father
    and bitterness to the mother who bore him.

²⁶ If imposing a fine on the innocent is not good,
    surely to flog honest officials is not right.
