Proverbs

¹⁷Correct thy son, and he shall give thee rest; yea, he shall give delight unto thy soul. ¹⁸Where there is no vision, the people perish: but he that keepeth the law, happy is he. ¹⁹A servant will not be corrected by words: for though he understand he will not answer. ²⁰Seest thou a man that is hasty in his words? there is more hope of a fool than of him. ²¹He that delicately bringeth up his servant from a child shall have him become his son at the length. ²²An angry man stirreth up strife, and a furious man aboundeth in transgression. ²³A man’s pride shall bring him low: but honour shall uphold the humble in spirit.
