Proverbs

¹⁰The bloodthirsty hate him that is perfect; And as for the upright, they seek his life. ¹¹A fool uttereth all his anger; But a wise man keepeth it back and stilleth it. ¹²If a ruler hearkeneth to falsehood, All his servants are wicked. ¹³The poor man and the oppressor meet together; Jehovah lighteneth the eyes of them both. 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 causeth shame to his mother. ¹⁶When the wicked are increased, transgression increaseth; But the righteous shall look upon their fall.
