    Proverbs, Chapter 29

    Here we go! Hope y’all enjoy!

    A man who remains stiff-necked after many rebukes will suddenly be destroyed, without remedy. When the righteous thrive, the people rejoice; when the wicked rule, the people groan. A man who loves wisdom brings joy to his dad. But a companion of prostitutes squanders his wealth.

    By justice, a king gives a country stability. But one who is greedy for bribes tears it down. Whoever flatters his neighbor is spreading a net for his feet. An evil man is marked by his own sin. But a righteous one can sing & be glad. The righteous care about justice for the poor. But the wicked have no such concern.

    Mockers stir up a city. But wise men turn away anger. If a wise man goes to court with a fool, the fool rages & scoffs, & there’s no peace. Bloodthirsty men hate a man of integrity & seek to kill the upright. A fool gives full vent to his anger. A wise man keeps himself under control.

    If a ruler listens to lies, all his officials become wicked. The poor man & the oppressor have this in common: the Lord gives sight to the eyes of both. If a king judges the poor with fairness, his throne will always be secure. The rod of correction imparts wisdom. But a child left to himself disgraces his mom.

    When the wicked thrive, so does sin. But the righteous will see their downfall. Discipline your son, & he’ll give you peace. He’ll bring delight to your soul. Where there is no revelation, the people cast off restraint. But blessed is he who keeps the law.

    A servant cannot be corrected by mere words. Though he understands, he’ll not respond. Do you see a man who speaks in haste? There’s more hope for a fool than for him. If a man pampers his servant from youth, he’ll bring grief in the end. An angry man stirs up dissension, & a hot-tempered one commits many sins.

    A man’s pride brings him low. But a man of lowly spirit gains honor. The accomplice of a thief is his own enemy. He’s put under oath & dare not testify. Fear of man will prove to be a snare. But whoever trusts in the Lord is kept safe. Many seek an audience with a ruler. But it’s from the Lord that man gets justice.

    The righteous detest the dishonest. The wicked detest the upright.
