Proverbs 29:20-27 King James 2000 (KJ2000)

20. See you a man that is hasty in his words? there is more hope for a fool than for him.

21. He that carefully brings up his servant from a child shall have him become his son in the end.

22. An angry man stirs up strife, and a furious man abounds in transgression.

23. A man's pride shall bring him low: but honor shall uphold the humble in spirit.

24. Whosoever is partner with a thief hates his own soul: he hears cursing, and reveals it not.

25. The fear of man brings a snare: but whosoever puts his trust in the LORD shall be safe.

26. Many seek the ruler's favor; but every man's judgment comes from the LORD.

27. An unjust man is an abomination to the just: and he that is upright in the way is abomination to the wicked.
