Proverbs 29:19-23

Tree of Life Version

¹⁹ A servant cannot be corrected by words,
for though he understands, he will not respond.
²⁰ Do you see someone hasty in his words?
There is more hope for a fool than him.

²¹ If someone pampers his slave from childhood
in the end he will be ungrateful.

²² An angry man stirs up dissention,
and a hotheaded one commits many transgressions.

²³ A man’s pride will bring him low,
but a humble spirit will gain honor.
