Proverbs 29:19-27
A servant will not be corrected by words: for though he understand he will not answer. Seest thou a man that is hasty in his words? there is more hope of a fool than of him.29.20 words: or, matters? He that delicately bringeth up his servant from a child shall have him become his son at the length. An angry man stirreth up strife, and a furious man aboundeth in transgression. A man’s pride shall bring him low: but honour shall uphold the humble in spirit. Whoso is partner with a thief hateth his own soul: he heareth cursing, and bewrayeth it not. The fear of man bringeth a snare: but whoso putteth his trust in the LORD shall be safe.29.25 safe: Heb. set on high Many seek the ruler’s favour; but every man’s judgment cometh from the LORD.29.26 the ruler’s…: Heb. the face of a ruler An unjust man is an abomination to the just: and he that is upright in the way is abomination to the wicked.
