Proverbs 29:19-22
English Standard Version
19 By mere words a servant is not disciplined,
for though he understands, he will not respond.
20 Do you see a man who is hasty in his words?
(A)There is more hope for a fool than for him.
21 Whoever pampers his servant from childhood
will in the end find him his heir.[a]
22 (B)A man of wrath stirs up strife,
and one given to anger causes much transgression.

- Proverbs 29:21 The meaning of the Hebrew word rendered his heir is uncertain
