Proverbs 29 - American Standard Version 2015

1 He that being often reproved hardeneth his neck\par\tab Shall suddenly be destroyed, and that without remedy

2 When the righteous are increased, the people rejoice;\par\tab But when a wicked man beareth rule, the people sigh.

3 Whoso loveth wisdom rejoiceth his father;\par\tab But he that keepeth company with harlots wasteth his substance.

4 The king by justice establisheth the land;\par\tab But he that exacteth gifts overthroweth it.

5 A man that flattereth his neighbor\par\tab Spreadeth a net for his steps.

6 In the transgression of an evil man there is a snare;\par\tab But the righteous doth sing and rejoice.

7 The righteous taketh knowledge of the cause of the poor;\par\tab The wicked hath not understanding to know {\i it}.

8 Scoffers set a city in a flame;\par\tab But wise men turn away wrath.

9 If a wise man hath a controversy with a foolish man,\par\tab Whether he be angry or laugh, there will be no rest.

10 The bloodthirsty hate him that is perfect;\par\tab And as for the upright, they seek his life.

11 A fool uttereth all his anger;\par\tab But a wise man keepeth it back and stilleth it.

12 If a ruler hearkeneth to falsehood,\par\tab All his servants are wicked.

13 The poor man and the oppressor meet together;\par\tab Jehovah lighteneth the eyes of them both.

14 The king that faithfully judgeth the poor,\par\tab His throne shall be established for ever.

15 The rod and reproof give wisdom;\par\tab But a child left to himself causeth shame to his mother.

16 When the wicked are increased, transgression increaseth;\par\tab But the righteous shall look upon their fall.

17 Correct thy son, and he will give thee rest;\par\tab Yea, he will give delight unto thy soul.

18 Where there is no vision, the people cast off restraint;\par\tab But he that keepeth the law, happy is he.

19 A servant will not be corrected by words;\par\tab For though he understand, he will not give heed.

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

21 He that delicately bringeth up his servant from a child\par\tab Shall have him become a son at the last.

22 An angry man stirreth up strife,\par\tab And a wrathful man aboundeth in transgression.

23 A man's pride shall bring him low;\par\tab But he that is of a lowly spirit shall obtain honor.

24 Whoso is partner with a thief hateth his own soul;\par\tab He heareth the adjuration and uttereth nothing.

25 The fear of man bringeth a snare;\par\tab But whoso putteth his trust in Jehovah shall be safe.

26 Many seek the ruler's favor;\par\tab But a man's judgment {\i cometh} from Jehovah.

27 An unjust man is an abomination to the righteous;\par\tab And he that is upright in the way is an abomination to the wicked.\par
