5 ¹A man who flatters his neighbor spreads ²a net for his feet.

6 An evil man is ³ensnared in his transgression, but a righteous man ⁴sings and rejoices.

7 A righteous man ⁵knows the rights of the poor; a wicked man does not ⁶understand such knowledge.

8 ⁷Scoffers 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 ⁸no quiet.

10 Bloodthirsty men ⁹hate one who is blameless and seek the life of the upright.^a

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 ¹⁰meet together; the LORD ¹¹ gives light to the eyes of both.

14 If a king ¹²faithfully judges the poor, his throne will ¹³be established forever.

15 ¹⁴The rod and reproof give wisdom, but a child left to himself ¹⁵brings shame to his mother.

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

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

18 Where ¹⁸there is no prophetic vision the people ¹⁹cast off restraint,^b but blessed is he who ²⁰keeps 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? ²¹There is more hope for a fool than for him.

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

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

23 ²³One's pride will bring him low, ²⁴but he who is lowly in spirit will obtain honor.

24 The partner of a thief ²⁵hates his own life; ²⁶he hears the curse, but discloses nothing.

25 ²⁷The fear of man lays a snare, but whoever trusts in the LORD is safe.
