Proverbs 29:1-7 AMPC
[1] HE WHO, being often reproved, hardens his neck shall suddenly be destroyed–and that without remedy.
[2] When the [uncompromisingly] righteous are in authority, the people rejoice; but when the wicked man rules, the people groan and sigh.
[3] Whoever loves skillful and godly Wisdom rejoices his father, but he who associates with harlots wastes his substance.
[4] The king by justice establishes the land, but he who exacts gifts and tribute overthrows it.
[5] A man who flatters his neighbor spreads a net for his own feet.
[6] In the transgression of an evil man there is a snare, but the [uncompromisingly] righteous man sings and rejoices.
[7] The [consistently] righteous man knows and cares for the rights of the poor, but the wicked man has no interest in such knowledge. [Job 29:16; 31:13; Ps. 41:1.]
