Proverbs 29:15-22
New American Standard Bible
Chapter 29
15
The rod and a rebuke give wisdom,
But a child who gets his own way brings shame to his mother.
16
When the wicked increase, wrongdoing increases;
But the righteous will see their downfall.
17
Correct your son, and he will give you comfort;
He will also delight your soul.
18
Where there is no vision, the people are unrestrained,
But happy is one who keeps the Law.
19
A slave will not be instructed by words
alone;
For
though
he understands, there will be no response.
20
Do you see a person who is hasty with his words?
There is more hope for a fool than for him.
21
One who pampers his slave from childhood
Will in the end
find
him to be rebellious.
22
An angry person stirs up strife,
And a hot-tempered person abounds in wrongdoing.
King James Version
Chapter 29
15
The rod and reproof give wisdom: but a child left to himself bringeth his mother to shame.
16
When the wicked are multiplied, transgression increaseth: but the righteous shall see their fall.
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.
20
Seest thou a man that is hasty in his words? there is more hope of a fool than of him.
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.
Christian Standard Bible
Chapter 29
15
A rod of correction imparts wisdom,
but a youth left to himself
is a disgrace to his mother.
16
When the wicked increase, rebellion increases,
but the righteous will see their downfall.
17
Discipline your child, and it will bring you peace of mind
and give you delight.
18
Without revelation people run wild,
but one who follows divine instruction will be happy.
19
A servant cannot be disciplined by words;
though he understands, he doesn’t respond.
20
Do you see someone who speaks too soon?
There is more hope for a fool than for him.
21
A servant pampered from his youth
will become arrogant later on.
22
An angry person stirs up conflict,
and a hot-tempered one increases rebellion.
New Living Translation
Chapter 29
15
To discipline a child produces wisdom,
but a mother is disgraced by an undisciplined child.
16
When the wicked are in authority, sin flourishes,
but the godly will live to see their downfall.
17
Discipline your children, and they will give you peace of mind
and will make your heart glad.
18
When people do not accept divine guidance, they run wild.
But whoever obeys the law is joyful.
19
Words alone will not discipline a servant;
the words may be understood, but they are not heeded.
20
There is more hope for a fool
than for someone who speaks without thinking.
21
A servant pampered from childhood
will become a rebel.
22
An angry person starts fights;
a hot-tempered person commits all kinds of sin.
English Standard Version
Chapter 29
15
The rod and reproof give wisdom,
but a child left to himself brings shame to his mother.
16
When the wicked increase, transgression increases,
but the righteous will look upon their downfall.
17
Discipline your son, and he will give you rest;
he will give delight to your heart.
18
Where there is no prophetic vision the people cast off restraint,
but blessed is he who keeps the law.
19
By mere words a servant is not disciplined,
for though he understands, he will not respond.
20
Do you see a man who is hasty in his words?
There is more hope for a fool than for him.
21
Whoever pampers his servant from childhood
will in the end find him his heir.
22
A man of wrath stirs up strife,
and one given to anger causes much transgression.
New International Version
Chapter 29
15
A rod and a reprimand impart wisdom,
but a child left undisciplined disgraces its mother.
16
When the wicked thrive, so does sin,
but the righteous will see their downfall.
17
Discipline your children, and they will give you peace;
they will bring you the delights you desire.
18
Where there is no revelation, people cast off restraint;
but blessed is the one who heeds wisdom’s instruction.
19
Servants cannot be corrected by mere words;
though they understand, they will not respond.
20
Do you see someone who speaks in haste?
There is more hope for a fool than for them.
21
A servant pampered from youth
will turn out to be insolent.
22
An angry person stirs up conflict,
and a hot-tempered person commits many sins.
New King James Version
Chapter 29
15
The rod and rebuke give wisdom,
But a child left
to himself
brings shame to his mother.
16
When the wicked are multiplied, transgression increases;
But the righteous will see their fall.
17
Correct your son, and he will give you rest;
Yes, he will give delight to your soul.
18
Where
there is
no revelation, the people cast off restraint;
But happy
is
he who keeps the law.
19
A servant will not be corrected by mere words;
For though he understands, he will not respond.
20
Do you see a man hasty in his words?
There is
more hope for a fool than for him.
21
He who pampers his servant from childhood
Will have him as a son in the end.
22
An angry man stirs up strife,
And a furious man abounds in transgression.
