New Testament

Proverbs 29:22-27 English Standard Version (ESV)

22. A man of wrath stirs up strife,and one given to anger causes much transgression.

23. One’s pride will bring him low, but he who is lowly in spirit will obtain honor.

24. The partner of a thief hates his own life; he hears the curse, but discloses nothing.

25. The fear of man lays a snare,but whoever trusts in the Lord is safe.

26. Many seek the face of a ruler,but it is from the Lord that a man gets justice.

27. An unjust man is an abomination to the righteous,but one whose way is straight is an abomination to the wicked.
