Proverbs 29:19-21
New Revised Standard Version Updated Edition
19 By mere words slaves are not disciplined,
for though they understand, they will not give heed.
20 Do you see someone who is hasty in speech?
There is more hope for a fool than for anyone like that.(A)
21 A slave pampered from childhood
will come to a bad end.[a]
