Proverbs
Chapters 29:16-22
New International Version Anglicized
16When the wicked thrive, so does sin,but the righteous will see their downfall.
17Discipline your children, and they will give you peace;they will bring you the delights you desire.
18Where there is no revelation, people cast off restraint;but blessed is the one who heeds wisdom’s instruction.
19Servants cannot be corrected by mere words;though they understand, they will not respond.
20Do you see someone who speaks in haste?There is more hope for a fool than for them.
21A servant pampered from youthwill turn out to be insolent.
22An angry person stirs up conflict,and a hot-tempered person commits many sins.
