  • Proverbs 29:13-19 (ESV)

    13 The poor man and the oppressor meet together;

    the Lord gives light to the eyes of both.

    14 If a king faithfully judges the poor,

    his throne will be established forever.

    15 The rod and reproof give wisdom,

    but a child left to himself brings shame to his mother.

    16 When the wicked increase, transgression increases,

    but the righteous will look upon their downfall.

    17 Discipline your son, and he will give you rest;

    he will give delight to your heart.

    18 Where there is no prophetic vision the people cast off restraint,

    but blessed is he who keeps the law.

    19 By mere words a servant is not disciplined,

    for though he understands, he will not respond.
