Proverbs 17:6-8
New American Standard Bible
Chapter 17
6
Grandchildren are the crown of the old,
And the glory of sons is their fathers.
7
Excellent speech is not fitting for a fool,
Much less are lying lips to a prince.
8
A bribe is a charm in the sight of its owner;
Wherever he turns, he prospers.
King James Version
Chapter 17
6
Children's children
are
the crown of old men; and the glory of children
are
their fathers.
7
Excellent speech becometh not a fool: much less do lying lips a prince.
8
A gift
is as
a precious stone in the eyes of him that hath it: whithersoever it turneth, it prospereth.
Christian Standard Bible
Chapter 17
6
Grandchildren are the crown of the elderly, and the pride of children is their fathers.
7
Eloquent words are not appropriate on a fool's lips; how much worse are lies for a ruler.
8
A bribe seems like a magic stone to its owner; wherever he turns, he succeeds.
New Living Translation
Chapter 17
6
Grandchildren are the crowning glory of the aged;
parents are the pride of their children.
7
Eloquent words are not fitting for a fool;
even less are lies fitting for a ruler.
8
A bribe is like a lucky charm;
whoever gives one will prosper!
English Standard Version
Chapter 17
6
Grandchildren are the crown of the aged, and the glory of children is their fathers.
7
Fine speech is not becoming to a fool; still less is false speech to a prince.
8
A bribe is like a magic stone in the eyes of the one who gives it; wherever he turns he prospers.
New International Version
Chapter 17
6
Children's children are a crown to the aged, and parents are the pride of their children.
7
Eloquent lips are unsuited to a godless fool-- how much worse lying lips to a ruler!
8
A bribe is seen as a charm by the one who gives it; they think success will come at every turn.
New King James Version
Chapter 17
6
Children’s children
are
the crown of old men,
And the glory of children
is
their father.
7
Excellent speech is not becoming to a fool,
Much less lying lips to a prince.
8
A present
is
a precious stone in the eyes of its possessor;
Wherever he turns, he prospers.
