Proverbs 29:15-27
New International Version
15 A rod and a reprimand impart wisdom,
but a child left undisciplined disgraces its mother.(A)
16 When the wicked thrive, so does sin,
but the righteous will see their downfall.(B)
17 Discipline your children, and they will give you peace;
they will bring you the delights you desire.(C)
18 Where there is no revelation, people cast off restraint;
but blessed is the one who heeds wisdom’s instruction.(D)
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.(E)
21 A servant pampered from youth
will turn out to be insolent.
22 An angry person stirs up conflict,
and a hot-tempered person commits many sins.(F)
24 The accomplices of thieves are their own enemies;
they are put under oath and dare not testify.(I)
27 The righteous detest the dishonest;
the wicked detest the upright.(O)
