New Revised Standard Version Help
29One who is often reproved, yet remains stubborn, will suddenly be broken beyond healing.H376H8433H7185H6203H6621H7665H4832 2When the righteous are in authority, the people rejoice; but when the wicked rule, the people groan.H6662H7235H5971H8055H7563H4910H5971H584 3A child who loves wisdom makes a parent glad, but to keep company with prostitutes is to squander one's substance.H376H157H2451H8055H1H7462H2181H6H1952 4By justice a king gives stability to the land, but one who makes heavy exactions ruins it.H4428H4941H5975H776H376H8641H2040 5Whoever flatters a neighbor is spreading a net for the neighbor's feet.H1397H2505H7453H6566H7568H6471 6In the transgression of the evil there is a snare, but the righteous sing and rejoice.H6588H7451H376H4170H6662H7442H8056 7The righteous know the rights of the poor; the wicked have no such understanding.H6662H3045H1779H1800H7563H995H1847 8Scoffers set a city aflame, but the wise turn away wrath.H3944H582H6315H7151H6315H2450H7725H639 9If the wise go to law with fools, there is ranting and ridicule without relief.H2450H376H8199H191H376H7264H7832H5183 10The bloodthirsty hate the blameless, and they seek the life of the upright.H582H1818H8130H8535H3477H1245H5315 11A fool gives full vent to anger, but the wise quietly holds it back.H3684H3318H7307H2450H7623H268 12If a ruler listens to falsehood, all his officials will be wicked.H4910H7181H1697H8267H8334H7563 13The poor and the oppressor have this in common: the LORD gives light to the eyes of both.H7326H8501H376H6298H3068H215H8147H5869 14If a king judges the poor with equity, his throne will be established forever.H4428H571H8199H1800H3678H3559H5703 15The rod and reproof give wisdom, but a mother is disgraced by a neglected child.H7626H8433H5414H2451H5288H7971H517H954 16When the wicked are in authority, transgression increases, but the righteous will look upon their downfall.H7563H7235H6588H7235H6662H7200H4658 17Discipline your children, and they will give you rest; they will give delight to your heart.H3256H1121H5117H5414H4574H5315 18Where there is no prophecy, the people cast off restraint, but happy are those who keep the law.H2377H5971H6544H8104H8451H835 19By mere words servants are not disciplined, for though they understand, they will not give heed.H5650H3256H1697H995H4617 20Do you see someone who is hasty in speech? There is more hope for a fool than for anyone like that.H2372H376H213H1697H8615H3684 21A slave pampered from childhood will come to a bad end.H6445H5650H5290H4497H319 22One given to anger stirs up strife, and the hothead causes much transgression.H639H376H1624H4066H2534H1167H7227H6588 23A person's pride will bring humiliation, but one who is lowly in spirit will obtain honor.H120H1346H8213H3519H8551H8217H7307 24To be a partner of a thief is to hate one's own life; one hears the victim's curse, but discloses nothing.H2505H1590H8130H5315H8085H423H5046 25The fear of others lays a snare, but one who trusts in the LORD is secure.H2731H120H5414H4170H982H3068H7682 26Many seek the favor of a ruler, but it is from the LORD that one gets justice.H7227H1245H4910H6440H376H4941H3068 27The unjust are an abomination to the righteous, but the upright are an abomination to the wicked.H5766H376H8441H6662H3477H1870H8441H7563
