Proverbs
Chapters 29:6-12
New International Version Anglicized
6Evildoers are snared by their own sin,but the righteous shout for joy and are glad.
7The righteous care about justice for the poor,but the wicked have no such concern.
8Mockers stir up a city,but the wise turn away anger.
9If a wise person goes to court with a fool,the fool rages and scoffs, and there is no peace.
10The bloodthirsty hate a person of integrityand seek to kill the upright.
11Fools give full vent to their rage,but the wise bring calm in the end.
12If a ruler listens to lies,all his officials become wicked.
