Proverbs 29:7-9
Wycliffe Bible
7 A just man knoweth the cause of poor men; and an unpious man knoweth not knowing. (The righteous know of the concerns of the poor; but the wicked do not care to know.)
8 Men full of pestilence destroy a city; but wise men turn away strong vengeance.
9 If a wise man striveth with a fool, whether he be wroth, or laugh, he shall not find rest.

Proverbs 29:7-9
New International Version
7 The righteous care about justice for the poor,(A)
but the wicked have no such concern.
8 Mockers stir up a city,
but the wise turn away anger.(B)
9 If a wise person goes to court with a fool,
the fool rages and scoffs, and there is no peace.
