1  He, that being often reproved hardeneth his neck, shall
suddenly be destroyed, and that without remedy. 

 2  When the righteous are in authority, the people rejoice:
but when the wicked beareth rule, the people mourn. 

 3  Whoso loveth wisdom rejoiceth his father: but he that
keepeth company with harlots spendeth his substance. 

 4  The king by judgment establisheth the land: but he that
receiveth gifts overthroweth it. 

 5  A man that flattereth his neighbour spreadeth a net for
his feet. 

 6  In the transgression of an evil man there is a snare:
but the righteous doth sing and rejoice. 

 7  The righteous considereth the cause of the poor: but the
wicked regardeth not to know it. 

 8  Scornful men bring a city into a snare: but wise men
turn away wrath. 

 9  If a wise man contendeth with a foolish man, whether he
rage or laugh, there is no rest. 

 10  The bloodthirsty hate the upright: but the just seek
his soul. 

 11  A fool uttereth all his mind: but a wise man keepeth it
in till afterwards. 

 12  If a ruler hearken to lies, all his servants are
wicked. 

 13  The poor and the deceitful man meet together: the LORD
lighteneth both their eyes. 

 14  The king that faithfully judgeth the poor, his throne
shall be established for ever. 

 15  The rod and reproof give wisdom: but a child left to
himself bringeth his mother to shame. 

 16  When the wicked are multiplied, transgression
increaseth: but the righteous shall see their fall. 

 17  Correct thy son, and he shall give thee rest; yea, he
shall give delight unto thy soul. 

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

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

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

 21  He that delicately bringeth up his servant from a child
shall have him become his son at the length. 

 22  An angry man stirreth up strife, and a furious man
aboundeth in transgression. 

 23  A man's pride shall bring him low: but honour shall
uphold the humble in spirit. 

 24  Whoso is partner with a thief hateth his own soul: he
heareth cursing, and bewrayeth it not. 

 25  The fear of man bringeth a snare: but whoso putteth his
trust in the LORD shall be safe. 

 26  Many seek the ruler's favour; but every man's judgment
cometh from the LORD. 

 27  An unjust man is an abomination to the just: and he
that is upright in the way is abomination to the wicked.
