Proverbs 29:20-24 New International Reader's Version (NIRV)

20. Have you seen a man who speaks without thinking? There is more hope for foolish people than for him.

21. If you spoil your servant while he is young, he will bring you sorrow later on.

22. An angry man stirs up fights. And a person who burns with anger commits many sins.

23. If a man is proud, he will be made low. But if he isn't proud, he will be honored.

24. Anyone who helps a thief is his own enemy. When he is put under oath, he doesn't dare give witness.
