Proverbs 29:18-25 The Scriptures 1998 (ISR98)

18. Where there is no vision, the people are let loose, But blessed is he who guards the Torah.

19. A servant is not disciplined by words; Though he understands, he does not respond.

20. Have you seen a man hasty in his words? There is more expectancy for a fool than for him.

21. He who deals tenderly With his servant from youth, Has him as a son in the end.

22. A man of displeasure stirs up strife, And a master of rage has many a transgression.

23. The pride of man brings him low, But the humble in spirit obtains esteem.

24. He who shares with a thief hates his own life; He hears an oath, but does not report.

25. The fear of man brings a snare, But whoever trusts in יהוה is set on high.
