Proverbs 29:18

16 When the wicked thrive, rebellion increases; but the righteous will see their downfall.

17 Discipline your son, and he will give you rest; he will bring delight to your soul.

Where there is no vision, the people cast off restraint; but blessed is he who keeps the Law.

19 A servant cannot be corrected by words alone; though he understands, he will not respond.

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