Bible Comments

A man shall be commended, to wit, by wise and good men, according to his wisdom; more or less according to the degree of wisdom which his discourses and actions discover to be in him. He that is of a perverse heart, which he showeth by his wicked words and conversation, shall be despised by God and all wise men.

Proverbs 12:8

8 A man shall be commended according to his wisdom: but he that is of a perverse heart shall be despised.
