SCRIPTURE

"A righteous man regardeth the life of his beast; But the tender mercies of the wicked are cruel." — Proverbs 12:10 (ASV)

A godly man would not put even an animal to needless pain. But the wicked often speak of others as being treated well, when they would not endure like treatment for a single day.
