Proverbs 29:19-21
Evangelical Heritage Version
19 A servant cannot be disciplined with words.
Although he understands, he shows no response.
20 Have you seen a person who is hasty with his words?
There is more hope for a fool than for him.
21 If someone pampers his servant from the time he is young,
later on he will have grief.
Proverbs 29:19-21
New International Version
19 Servants cannot be corrected by mere words;
though they understand, they will not respond.
20 Do you see someone who speaks in haste?
There is more hope for a fool than for them.(A)
21 A servant pampered from youth
will turn out to be insolent.
