Proverbs 29:18-20

Douay-Rheims 1899 American Edition

¹⁸ When prophecy shall fail, the people shall be scattered abroad: but he that keepeth the law is blessed.

¹⁹ A slave will not be corrected by words: because he understandeth what thou sayest, and will not answer.

²⁰ Hast thou seen a man hasty to speak? folly is rather to be looked for, than his amendment.
