Proverbs 17:12-14

International Children’s Bible

¹² It is better to meet a bear robbed of her cubs
    than to meet a foolish person doing foolish things.

¹³ If a person gives evil in return for good,
    his house will always be full of trouble.

¹⁴ Starting a quarrel is like a leak in a dam.
    So stop the quarrel before a fight breaks out.
