13 The poor and a man of oppression have this in common: Yahweh gives light to the eyes of them both.
14 A king who judges with truthfulness to the poor, his throne will be established forever.
15 As for a rod and reproof, they will give wisdom, but a neglected child is disgraced by his mother.
16 With the increase of the wicked, transgression will increase, but the righteous will look on his downfall.
17 Discipline your children, and they will give you rest, and they will give delight to your soul.
18 When there is no prophecy, the people cast off restraint, but as for he who guards instruction, happiness is his.
19 By words, a servant is not disciplined, for he will understand, but there is no giving heed.
