11 A fool vents all his feelings,But a wise man holds them back.
12 If a ruler pays attention to lies,All his servants become wicked.
13 The poor man and the oppressor have this in common:The Lord gives light to the eyes of both.
14 The king who judges the poor with truth,His throne will be established forever.
15 The rod and rebuke give wisdom,But a child left to himself brings shame to his mother.
16 When the wicked are multiplied, transgression increases;But the righteous will see their fall.
17 Correct your son, and he will give you rest;Yes, he will give delight to your soul.
