17
Correct thy son, and he shall give thee rest; yea, he shall give delight unto thy soul.
18
Where there is no vision, the people perish: but he that keepeth the law, happy is he.
19
A servant will not be corrected by words: for though he understand he will not answer.

21
He that delicately bringeth up his servant from a child shall have him become his son at the length.
22
An angry man stirreth up strife, and a furious man aboundeth in transgression.
23
A man's pride shall bring him low: but honour shall uphold the humble in spirit.
24
Whoso is partner with a thief hateth his own soul: he heareth cursing, and bewrayeth it not.
26
Many seek the ruler's favour; but every man's judgment cometh 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.
