Proverbs 29 (kjv)

29

HeH376, that being often reprovedH8433 hardenethH7185 his neckH6203, shall suddenlyH6621 be destroyedH7665, and that without remedyH4832.2When the righteousH6662 are in authorityH7235, the peopleH5971 rejoiceH8055: but when the wickedH7563 beareth ruleH4910, the peopleH5971 mournH584.3WhosoH376 lovethH157 wisdomH2451 rejoicethH8055 his fatherH1: but he that keepeth companyH7462 with harlotsH2181 spendethH6 his substanceH1952.4The kingH4428 by judgmentH4941 establishethH5975 the landH776: but heH376 that receiveth giftsH8641 overthrowethH2040 it.5A manH1397 that flatterethH2505 his neighbourH7453 spreadethH6566 a netH7568 for his feetH6471.6In the transgressionH6588 of an evilH7451 manH376 there is a snareH4170: but the righteousH6662 doth singH7442 and rejoiceH8056.7The righteousH6662 considerethH3045 the causeH1779 of the poorH1800: but the wickedH7563 regardethH995 not to knowH1847 it.8ScornfulH3944 menH582 bringH6315 a cityH7151 into a snareH6315: but wiseH2450 men turn awayH7725 wrathH639.9If a wiseH2450 manH376 contendethH8199 with a foolishH191 manH376, whether he rageH7264 or laughH7832, there is no restH5183.10The bloodthirstyH582 H1818 hateH8130 the uprightH8535: but the justH3477 seekH1245 his soulH5315.11A foolH3684 utterethH3318 all his mindH7307: but a wiseH2450 man keepethH7623 it in till afterwardsH268.12If a rulerH4910 hearkenH7181 to liesH1697 H8267, all his servantsH8334 are wickedH7563.13The poorH7326 and the deceitfulH8501 manH376 meet togetherH6298: the LORDH3068 lightenethH215 bothH8147 their eyesH5869.14The kingH4428 that faithfullyH571 judgethH8199 the poorH1800, his throneH3678 shall be establishedH3559 for everH5703.

15The rodH7626 and reproofH8433 giveH5414 wisdomH2451: but a childH5288 leftH7971 to himself bringeth his motherH517 to shameH954.16When the wickedH7563 are multipliedH7235, transgressionH6588 increasethH7235: but the righteousH6662 shall seeH7200 their fallH4658.17CorrectH3256 thy sonH1121, and he shall give thee restH5117; yea, he shall giveH5414 delightH4574 unto thy soulH5315.18Where there is no visionH2377, the peopleH5971 perishH6544: but he that keepethH8104 the lawH8451, happyH835 is he.19A servantH5650 will not be correctedH3256 by wordsH1697: for though he understandH995 he will not answerH4617.20SeestH2372 thou a manH376 that is hastyH213 in his wordsH1697? there is more hopeH8615 of a foolH3684 than of him.21He that delicately bringeth upH6445 his servantH5650 from a childH5290 shall have him become his sonH4497 at the lengthH319.

22An angryH639 manH376 stirreth upH1624 strifeH4066, and a furiousH2534 manH1167 aboundeth inH7227 transgressionH6588.23A man'sH120 prideH1346 shall bring him lowH8213: but honourH3519 shall upholdH8551 the humbleH8217 in spiritH7307.24Whoso is partnerH2505 with a thiefH1590 hatethH8130 his own soulH5315: he hearethH8085 cursingH423, and bewrayethH5046 it not.25The fearH2731 of manH120 bringethH5414 a snareH4170: but whoso putteth his trustH982 in the LORDH3068 shall be safeH7682.26ManyH7227 seekH1245 the ruler'sH4910 favourH6440; but every man'sH376 judgmentH4941 cometh from the LORDH3068.27An unjustH5766 manH376 is an abominationH8441 to the justH6662: and he that is uprightH3477 in the wayH1870 is abominationH8441 to the wickedH7563.
