9 If a wise man has an argument with a fool, the fool only rages and laughs, and there is ¹no quiet.

10 Bloodthirsty men ²hate 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 ³meet together; the LORD ⁴ gives light to the eyes of both.

14 If a king ⁵faithfully judges the poor, his throne will ⁶be established forever.

15 ⁷The rod and reproof give wisdom, but a child left to himself ⁸brings shame to his mother.

16 When the wicked increase, transgression increases, but ⁹the righteous will look upon their downfall.

17 ¹⁰Discipline your son, and he will give you rest; he will give delight to your heart.

18 Where ¹¹there is no prophetic vision the people ¹²cast off restraint,^b but blessed is he who ¹³keeps the law.

22 ¹⁵A man of wrath stirs up strife, and one given to anger causes much transgression.

23 ¹⁶One's pride will bring him low, ¹⁷but he who is lowly in spirit will obtain honor.

24 The partner of a thief ¹⁸hates his own life; ¹⁹he hears the curse, but discloses nothing.

25 ²⁰The fear of man lays a snare, but whoever trusts in the LORD is safe.

26 Many ²¹seek the face of a ruler, but it is from the LORD that a man ²²gets justice.

27 ²³An unjust man is an abomination to the righteous, but one whose way is straight is an abomination to the wicked.
