Proverbs 29:17-25

¹⁷Chasten thy son, and he shall give thee rest; And he shall give honor to thy soul.

¹⁸There shall be no interpreter to a sinful nation: But he that observes the law is blessed.

¹⁹A stubborn servant will not be reproved by words: For even if he understand, still he will not obey.

²⁰If thou see a man hasty in his words, Know that the fool has hope rather than he.

²¹He that lives wantonly from a child, shall be a servant, And in the end shall grieve over himself.

²²A furious man stirs up strife, And a passionate man digs up sin.

²³Pride brings a man low, But the Lord upholds the humble minded with honor.

²⁴He that shares with a thief, hates his own soul: And if any having heard an oath uttered tell not of it,

²⁵They fearing and reverencing men unreasonably have been overthrown, But he that trusts in the Lord shall rejoice. Ungodliness causes a man to stumble: But he that trusts in his master shall be safe.
