Proverbs 17:2

Lexham English Bible

²A slave who deals wisely will rule over a child who acts shamefully,
and in the midst of brothers he will share his inheritance.

Proverbs 17:2

New King James Version

²A wise servant will rule over ^(A)a son who causes shame,
And will share an inheritance among the brothers.

¹⁰A rebuke strikes him who understands
deeper than one hundred blows to a fool.

¹⁰^(A)Rebuke is more effective for a wise man
Than a hundred blows on a fool.
