11A fool uttereth all his mind: But a wise man keepeth it in till afterwards.
12If a ruler hearken to lies, All his servants are wicked.
13The poor and the deceitful man meet together: The Lord lighteneth both their eyes.
14The king that faithfully judgeth the poor, His throne shall be established for ever.
15The rod and reproof give wisdom: But a child left to himself bringeth his mother to shame.
16When the wicked are multiplied, transgression increaseth: But the righteous shall see their fall.
17Correct thy son, and he shall give thee rest; Yea, he shall give delight unto thy soul.
18Where there is no vision, the people perish: But he that keepeth the law, happy is he.
19A servant will not be corrected by words: For though he understand he will not answer.
20Seest thou a man that is hasty in his words? There is more hope of a fool than of him.
21He that delicately bringeth up his servant from a child Shall have him become his son at the length.
22An angry man stirreth up strife, And a furious man aboundeth in transgression.
23A man’s pride shall bring him low: But honour shall uphold the humble in spirit.
24Whoso is partner with a thief hateth his own soul: He heareth cursing, and bewrayeth it not.
25The fear of man bringeth a snare: But whoso putteth his trust in the Lord shall be safe.
26Many seek the ruler’s favour; But every man’s judgment cometh from the Lord.
