16 When the wicked increase, rebellion increases,but the righteous will see their downfall.
17 Discipline your son, and it will bring you peace of mind and give you delight.
18 Without revelation people run wild, but one who listens to instruction will be happy.
19 A slave cannot be disciplined by words;though he understands, he doesn’t respond.
20 Do you see a man who speaks too soon? There is more hope for a fool than for him.
21 A slave pampered from his youthwill become arrogant later on.
22 An angry man stirs up conflict,and a hot-tempered man increases rebellion.
