Proverbs

²¹He that delicately bringeth up his servant from a child shall have him become a son at the last. ²²An angry man stirreth up strife, and a wrathful man aboundeth in transgression. ²³A man's pride shall bring him low: but he that is of a lowly spirit shall obtain honour. ²⁴Whoso is partner with a thief hateth his own soul: he heareth the adjuration and uttereth nothing. 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 a man's judgment cometh from the LORD. ²⁷An unjust man is an abomination to the righteous: and he that is upright in the way is an abomination to the wicked.
