"Children's children the crown of old men; and the glory of children their fathers."
Proverbs 17:6

In context

4A wicked doer giveth heed to false lips; a liar giveth ear to a naughty tongue.

5Whoso mocketh the poor reproacheth his Maker: he that is glad at calamities shall not be unpunished.

6Children's children the crown of old men; and the glory of children their fathers.

7Excellent speech becometh not a fool: much less do lying lips a prince.

8A gift a precious stone in the eyes of him that hath it: whithersoever it turneth, it prospereth.
