The merciful man doeth good to his own soul: but he that is cruel troubleth his own flesh.
Una persona que muestra bondad y misericordia hace bien a su propia alma, pero alguien que es cruel solo se trae problemas a sí mismo.
La bondad nos beneficia a nosotros mismos, mientras que la crueldad nos perjudica.
