16 When the wicked increase, transgression increases,but the righteous will see their downfall.
17 Discipline your child, and he will give you rest;he will bring you happiness.
18 When there is no prophetic vision the people cast off restraint,but the one who keeps the law, blessed is he!
19 A servant cannot be corrected by words,for although he understands, there is no answer.
20 Do you see someone who is hasty in his words?There is more hope for a fool than for him.
21 If someone pampers his servant from youth,he will be a weakling in the end.
22 An angry person stirs up dissension,and a wrathful person is abounding in transgression.
