The King James Version Bible

Proverbs 29:1-4

  1. He, that being often reproved hardeneth his neck, shall suddenly be destroyed, and that without remedy.

  2. When the righteous are in authority, the people rejoice: but when the wicked beareth rule, the people mourn.

  3. Whoso loveth wisdom rejoiceth his father: but he that keepeth company with harlots spendeth his substance.

  4. The king by judgment establisheth the land: but he that receiveth gifts overthroweth it.
