Proverbs

²⁰Do you see someone who speaks in haste? There is more hope for a fool than for them. ²¹A servant pampered from youth will turn out to be insolent. ²²An angry person stirs up conflict, and a hot-tempered person commits many sins. ²³Pride brings a person low, but the lowly in spirit gain honor. ²⁴The accomplices of thieves are their own enemies; they are put under oath and dare not testify. ²⁵Fear of man will prove to be a snare, but whoever trusts in the Lord is kept safe. ²⁶Many seek an audience with a ruler, but it is from the Lord that one gets justice.
