Proverbs 29:19

King James Version (Oxford) 1769

A servant will not be corrected by words: For though he understand he will not answer.

See the chapter Copy

A whip for the horse, a bridle for the ass, And a rod for the fool's back.

I called my servant, and he gave me no answer; I intreated him with my mouth.

For a servant when he reigneth; And a fool when he is filled with meat;

Where there is no vision, the people perish: But he that keepeth the law, happy is he.

Seest thou a man that is hasty in his words? There is more hope of a fool than of him.
