Proverbs 17:5

PAC-MAN: Halloween 2025 Edition

+3

The King James Version (KJV) of the Bible includes the proverb, “Whoso mocketh the poor reproacheth his Maker” (

Proverbs 17:5). This means that by mocking someone in poverty, you are essentially insulting God, who is considered the creator of all people. The verse also notes that “he that is glad at calamities shall not be unpunished,” implying a strong divine disapproval of taking pleasure in others’ misfortune. 

  • Proverbs 17:5 (KJV): “Whoso mocketh the poor reproacheth his Maker: and he that is glad at calamities shall not be unpunished”.
  • Meaning: Mocking a poor person is seen as an insult to God, who created that person. Taking joy in the suffering of others will also bring punishment.
  • Broader context: This verse is part of a larger collection of proverbs in the Bible that emphasizes compassion, wisdom, and respect for all people, regardless of their circumstances. Other versions of this verse, such as Proverbs 14:31 (NIV), say, “He who oppresses the poor shows contempt for their Maker, but whoever is kind to the needy honors God,” according to World Vision

My Personal Trials and Tribulations and Adversity

Good Morning and God Bless You?  How come I am going through some much adversity?  Ladies and Gentlemen, I want to inform everyone that for the past 28 years, I have went through so much stress physically, mentally, emotionally, and psychologically 

An example of the stress that I am going through right now is the way that my own family members don’t listen to my advice.  I have been telling my family members that we are being computer hacked right now.   My own family members actually think that I am going to make a transition in my personal life.  My own family members think that I am losing my mind.  My own family members do not have any faith in my own ability to survive as a human being in society.

Next, I will admit that I have been feeling lethargic and suffering from Brain Fog.  This means that my way of thinking is not as sharp as it was; when I was much younger.   I will admit that I have been prescribed too much medication.   My psychiatrist stated to me that I really need to stay on my psychotropic medications for the long haul.

Moreover, I want to inform everyone that I am not as active as I was at the age of 30.  When I was 30 years old, I had graduated from the University of Toledo.  I will admit that my mind and thinking have sharply declined since 1995.  I will also admit that I have been taking my current medications for a total of 28 years now. 

In Addition to the way I have worked for half of my life.   I will admit that I have been working excessive jobs in order to survive on Planet Earth.   I know that my life has been stressful because I had been misunderstood by everyone in my entire family members and friends.   I know that I have been clean and sober for 35 years now.   I know that I am suffering from Diabetes Type #2 and Schizoid Affective Disorder as a  mental illness. 

Also, I am living in a neighborhood that doesn’t embrace full diversity.   I noticed that my own neighbors had been stealing from me and my own family members.   I have been stressing out about the way I am being treated by people who are not my family members.  What I am saying is that I have been hearing racial slurs while I am walking in my current neighborhood.  Frankly, I  want to inform everyone that my own family members use racial slurs as well.  For instance; my own family members have been calling me retarded and a homosexual. 

Further, I want to inform everyone that my niece and nephews do not respect me as a person.  My family members have been using vulgarity as young children.  I will also admit that I had been using vulgarity because my caretaker were using vulgarity in front of me as a child.  My half siblings and I do not relate well with each other.  I want to inform everyone that I used to have a very low self esteem.  This is simply because I was around people who didn’t know how to use constructive criticism .  I have friends who know how to use constructive criticism as Children rather than belittling me.

The adversity that I am going through is caused by other people and myself.   I have had water sprayed on me by my neighbors who live near me.  There are people who are homeless and living inside of vacant apartments. I will admit that my health problems has declined tremendously since 1995.  I am taking so much medication that I tend to become more active in the early afternoon because my medications caused me to sleep excessively. 

Finally, I will admit that I have neglected myself by not taking a bath on a daily basis.   Please continue to pray for me because I have been more sluggish and tired from taking too much medication each day.  My own family members say that my room doesn’t smell good.  I have to tell everyone the truth that I am suffering from athletes foot fungus and my mental illness has caused me to become very slothful and lazy for the past 28 years now.   I will admit that I hear voices that are not the Holy Spirit.   My conduct has improved because I am getting up and taking walks during the day.  I want everyone to please keep me in your prayers and thoughts because I am losing my memory and vision simultaneously. 

In Summary, I can read and write extremely well for a person in my age bracket. Most of the adversity that I am going through is simply because I am misunderstood by my own family members and people.  I can under why my neighbors are doing the things that; they are doing simply because I am taking a bath on a weekly basis.  I will admit that I have not cut my hair and shave my face in over a month.  I am very sorry for neglecting myself.  Right Now, I am very 😩 physically and mentally as well as emotionally and psychologically drained from taking 35 pills per day.  Please pray for me and my family members and friends worldwide 🌐 🙏  I  am being very transparent and truthful with God and each person on Planet Earth 🌏.  Thank you for understanding me as a person.  Thank you for reading my essay today 🙏.  Although I am a very educated person who has graduated from college twice.   Right Now, I am like a snail crawling on the ground.  God Bless All of You!
