Proverbs 29:14-21

¹⁴If a king judges the poor by the truth, his throne will be established forever.

¹⁵The rod and reproof give wisdom, but a child freed from discipline puts his mother to shame.

¹⁶When wicked people are in power, transgression increases, but righteous people will see the downfall of those wicked people.

¹⁷Discipline your son and he will give you rest; he will bring delights into your life.

¹⁸Where there is no prophetic vision the people run wild, but the one who keeps the law is blessed.

¹⁹A slave will not be corrected by words, for though he understands, there will be no response.

²⁰See a man who is hasty in his words? There is more hope for a fool than for him.

²¹One who pampers his slave from youth, at the end of it there will be trouble.
