Proverbs 29:19-21
New Life Version
19 A servant will not be taught by words alone. For even if he understands, he will not answer.
20 Do you see a man who is quick with his words? There is more hope for a fool than for him.
21 He who gives good care to his servant from the time he is young, will in the end find him to be a son.

New International Version
19 Servants cannot be corrected by mere words;
though they understand, they will not respond.

will turn out to be insolent.
