Proverbs 29:19-21
The Voice
19 Words are not enough to correct a servant;
even if he understands, he will not respond.
20 Have you ever met someone who is overly eager to talk?
There is more hope for a fool than for him.
21 If you indulge your servant from early in life,
in the end it won’t go well for either of you.
Proverbs 29:19-21
New International Version
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.
