20:029:014 The king that faithfully judgeth the poor,
his throne shall be
established
for ever.
20:029:015 The rod and reproof give wisdom: but
a child left to himself
bringeth
his mother to shame.
20:029:016 When the wicked are multiplied, transgression
increaseth: but
the
righteous shall see their fall.
20:029:017 Correct thy son, and he shall give thee
rest; yea, he shall
give
delight unto thy soul.
20:029:018 Where there is no vision, the people perish:
but he that
keepeth
the law, happy is he.
20:029:019 A servant will not be corrected by words:
for though he
understand
he will not answer.
20:029:020 Seest thou a man that is hasty in his words?
there is more
hope
of a fool than of him.
20:029:021 He that delicately bringeth up his servant
from a child shall
have
him become his son at the length.
20:029:022 An angry man stirreth up strife, and a
furious man aboundeth
in
transgression.
20:029:023 A man’s pride shall bring him low:
but honour shall uphold the
humble
in spirit.
20:029:024 Whoso is partner with a thief hateth his
own soul: he heareth
cursing,
and bewrayeth it not.
20:029:025 The fear of man bringeth a snare:
but whoso putteth his trust
in
the lord shall be safe.
20:029:026 Many seek the ruler’s favour; but
every man’s judgment cometh
from
the lord.
20:029:027 An unjust man is an abomination to the
just: and he that is
upright
in the way is abomination to the wicked.
20:030:001 The words of Agur the son of Jakeh, even
the prophecy: the man
spake
unto Ithiel, even unto Ithiel and Ucal,
20:030:002 Surely I am more brutish than any man,
and have not the
understanding
of a man.
20:030:003 I neither learned wisdom, nor have the knowledge of the holy.
20:030:004 Who hath ascended up into heaven, or descended?
who hath
gathered
the wind in his fists? who hath bound the waters in
a
garment?
who hath established all the ends of the earth? what
is
his name, and what is his son’s name, if thou
canst tell?
20:030:005 Every word of God is pure: he is a
shield unto them that put
their
trust in him.
20:030:006 Add thou not unto his words, lest he reprove
thee, and thou be
found
a liar.
20:030:007 Two things have I required of thee; deny
me them not before I
die:
20:030:008 Remove far from me vanity and lies:
give me neither poverty
nor
riches; feed me with food convenient for me:
20:030:009 Lest I be full, and deny thee, and say,
Who is the lord? or
lest
I be poor, and steal, and take the name of my God in
vain.
