Practical Warnings About Speech and Relationships
Proverbs 29:19-27
19
A slave will not be corrected by words: because he understandeth what thou sayest, and will not answer.
20
Hast thou seen a man hasty to speak? folly is rather to be looked for, than his amendment.
21
He that nourisheth his servant delicately from his childhood, afterwards shall find him stubborn.
22
A passionate man provoketh quarrels: and he that is easily stirred up to wrath, shall be more prone to sin.
23
Humiliation followeth the proud: and glory shall uphold the humble of spirit.
24
He that is partaker with a thief, hateth his own soul: he heareth one putting him to his oath, and discovereth not.
25
He that feareth man shall quickly fall: he that trusteth in the Lord, shall be set on high.
26
Many seek the face of the prince: but the judgment of every one cometh forth from the Lord.
27
The just abhor a wicked man: and the wicked loathe them that are in the right way. The son that keepeth the word, shall be free from destruction.
