Proverbs 29

Berean Study Bible (BSB)

1 A man who remains stiff-necked after much reproof will suddenly be shattered beyond recovery.

2 When the righteous flourish, the people rejoice, but when the wicked rule, the people groan.

3 A man who loves wisdom brings joy to his father, but a companion of prostitutes squanders his wealth.

4 By justice a king brings stability to the land, but a man who exacts tribute demolishes it.

5 A man who flatters his neighbor spreads a net for his feet.

6 An evil man is caught by his own sin, but a righteous one sings and rejoices.

7 The righteous consider the cause of the poor, but the wicked have no regard for such concerns.

8 Mockers inflame a city, but the wise turn away anger.

9 If a wise man goes to court with a fool, there will be raving and laughing with no resolution.

10 Men of bloodshed hate a blameless man, but the upright care for his life.

11 A fool vents all his anger, but a wise man holds it back.

12 If a ruler listens to lies, all his officials will be wicked.

13 The poor man and the oppressor have this in common: The LORD gives light to the eyes of both.

14 A king who judges the poor with fairness— his throne will be established forever.

15 A rod of correction imparts wisdom, but a child left to himself disgraces his mother.

16 When the wicked thrive, rebellion increases; but the righteous will see their downfall.

17 Discipline your son, and he will give you rest; he will bring delight to your soul.

18 Where there is no vision, the people cast off restraint; but blessed is he who keeps the Law.

19 A servant cannot be corrected by words alone; though he understands, he will not respond.

20 Do you see a man who speaks in haste? There is more hope for a fool than for him.

21 A servant pampered from his youth will bring grief in the end.

22 An angry man stirs up dissension, and a hot-tempered man abounds in transgression.

23 A man’s pride will bring him low, but a humble spirit will obtain honor.

24 A partner to a thief hates his own soul; he receives the oath, but does not testify.

25 The fear of man is a snare, but whoever trusts in the LORD is set securely on high.

26 Many seek the ruler’s favor, but a man receives justice from the LORD.

27 An unjust man is detestable to the righteous, and one whose way is upright is detestable to the wicked.
