Happy Is He Who Keeps the Law

29He who is often rebuked, and hardens his neck, Will suddenly be destroyed, and that without remedy.H376H8433H7185H6203H6621H7665H4832 2When the righteous are in authority, the people rejoice; But when a wicked man rules, the people groan.H6662H7235H5971H8055H7563H4910H5971H584 3Whoever loves wisdom makes his father rejoice, But a companion of harlots wastes his wealth.H376H157H2451H8055H1H7462H2181H6H1952 4The king establishes the land by justice, But he who receives bribes overthrows it.H4428H4941H5975H776H376H8641H2040 5A man who flatters his neighbor Spreads a net for his feet.H1397H2505H7453H6566H7568H6471 6By transgression an evil man is snared, But the righteous sings and rejoices.H6588H7451H376H4170H6662H7442H8056 7The righteous considers the cause of the poor, But the wicked does not understand such knowledge.H6662H3045H1779H1800H7563H995H1847 8Scoffers set a city aflame, But wise men turn away wrath.H3944H582H6315H7151H6315H2450H7725H639 9If a wise man contends with a foolish man, Whether the fool rages or laughs, there is no peace.H2450H376H8199H191H376H7264H7832H5183 10The bloodthirsty hate the blameless, But the upright seek his well-being.H582H1818H8130H8535H3477H1245H5315 11A fool vents all his feelings, But a wise man holds them back.H3684H3318H7307H2450H7623H268 12If a ruler pays attention to lies, All his servants become wicked.H4910H7181H1697H8267H8334H7563 13The poor man and the oppressor have this in common: The LORD gives light to the eyes of both.H7326H8501H376H6298H3068H215H8147H5869 14The king who judges the poor with truth, His throne will be established forever.H4428H571H8199H1800H3678H3559H5703 15The rod and rebuke give wisdom, But a child left to himself brings shame to his mother.H7626H8433H5414H2451H5288H7971H517H954 16When the wicked are multiplied, transgression increases; But the righteous will see their fall.H7563H7235H6588H7235H6662H7200H4658 17Correct your son, and he will give you rest; Yes, he will give delight to your soul.H3256H1121H5117H5414H4574H5315 18Where there is no revelation, the people cast off restraint; But happy is he who keeps the law.H2377H5971H6544H8104H8451H835 19A servant will not be corrected by mere words; For though he understands, he will not respond.H5650H3256H1697H995H4617 20Do you see a man hasty in his words? There is more hope for a fool than for him.H2372H376H213H1697H8615H3684 21He who pampers his servant from childhood Will have him as a son in the end.H6445H5650H5290H4497H319 22An angry man stirs up strife, And a furious man abounds in transgression.H639H376H1624H4066H2534H1167H7227H6588 23A man's pride will bring him low, But the humble in spirit will retain honor.H120H1346H8213H3519H8551H8217H7307 24Whoever is a partner with a thief hates his own life; He swears to tell the truth, but reveals nothing.H2505H1590H8130H5315H8085H423H5046 25The fear of man brings a snare, But whoever trusts in the LORD shall be safe.H2731H120H5414H4170H982H3068H7682 26Many seek the ruler's favor, But justice for man comes from the LORD.H7227H1245H4910H6440H376H4941H3068 27An unjust man is an abomination to the righteous, And he who is upright in the way is an abomination to the wicked.H5766H376H8441H6662H3477H1870H8441H7563
