Proverbs 29:1-26 - ESV - He who is often reproved, yet stiffens his neck...

1 ¹He who is often reproved, yet stiffens his neck, will suddenly be ²broken ³beyond healing.

2 When ⁴the righteous increase, the people rejoice, but when ⁵the wicked rule, the people groan.

3 He who ⁶loves wisdom makes his father glad, but ⁷a companion of prostitutes ⁸squanders his wealth.

4 By justice a king ⁹builds up the land, but he who exacts gifts^a tears it down.

5 ¹⁰A man who flatters his neighbor spreads ¹¹a net for his feet.

6 An evil man is ¹²ensnared in his transgression, but a righteous man ¹³sings and rejoices.

7 A righteous man ¹⁴knows the rights of the poor; a wicked man does not ¹⁵understand such knowledge.

8 ¹⁶Scoffers set a city aflame, but the wise turn away wrath.

9 If a wise man has an argument with a fool, the fool only rages and laughs, and there is ¹⁷no quiet.

10 Bloodthirsty men ¹⁸hate one who is blameless and seek the life of the upright.^b

11 A fool gives full vent to his spirit, but a wise man quietly holds it back.

12 If a ruler listens to falsehood, all his officials will be wicked.

13 The poor man and the oppressor ¹⁹meet together; the LORD ²⁰ gives light to the eyes of both.

14 If a king ²¹faithfully judges the poor, his throne will ²²be established forever.

15 ²³The rod and reproof give wisdom, but a child left to himself ²⁴brings shame to his mother.

16 When the wicked increase, transgression increases, but ²⁵the righteous will look upon their downfall.

17 ²⁶Discipline your son, and he will give you rest; he will give delight to your heart.

18 Where ²⁷there is no prophetic vision the people ²⁸cast off restraint,^c but blessed is he who ²⁹keeps the law.

19 By mere words a servant is not disciplined, for though he understands, he will not respond.

20 Do you see a man who is hasty in his words? ³⁰There is more hope for a fool than for him.

21 Whoever pampers his servant from childhood will in the end find him his heir.^d

22 ³¹A man of wrath stirs up strife, and one given to anger causes much transgression.

23 ³²One's pride will bring him low, ³³but he who is lowly in spirit will obtain honor.

24 The partner of a thief ³⁴hates his own life; ³⁵he hears the curse, but discloses nothing.

25 ³⁶The fear of man lays a snare, but whoever trusts in the LORD is safe.

26 Many ³⁷seek the face of a ruler, but it is from the LORD that a man ³⁸gets justice.
