Proverbs 29:20-27 New International Version Anglicized (NIVUK)

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

21. A servant pampered from youthwill turn out to be insolent.

22. An angry person stirs up conflict,and a hot-tempered person commits many sins.

23. Pride brings a person low,but the lowly in spirit gain honour.

24. The accomplices of thieves are their own enemies;they are put under oath and dare not testify.

25. Fear of man will prove to be a snare,but whoever trusts in the Lord is kept safe.

26. Many seek an audience with a ruler,but it is from the Lord that one gets justice.

27. The righteous detest the dishonest;the wicked detest the upright.
