Mockers inflame a city, but the wise turn away anger.

10
Bloodthirsty men hate an honest person, but the upright care about him.
11
A fool gives full vent to his anger, but a wise man holds it in check.
12
If a ruler listens to lies, all his servants will be wicked.
13
The poor and the oppressor have this in common: the LORD gives light to the eyes of both.
14
A king who judges the poor with fairness-- his throne will be established forever.
15

16
When the wicked increase, rebellion increases, but the righteous will see their downfall.
17
Discipline your son, and he will give you comfort; he will also give you delight.
18
Without revelation people run wild, but one who keeps the law will be happy.
19
A servant cannot be disciplined by words; though he understands, he doesn't respond.
20
Do you see a man who speaks too soon? There is more hope for a fool than for him.
21
A slave pampered from his youth will become arrogant later on.
22
An angry man stirs up conflict, and a hot-tempered man increases rebellion.
23
A person's pride will humble him, but a humble spirit will gain honor.
24
To be a thief's partner is to hate oneself; he hears the curse but will not testify.
25
The fear of man is a snare, but the one who trusts in the LORD is protected.
26
Many seek a ruler's favor, but a man receives justice from the LORD.
27
An unjust man is detestable to the righteous, and one whose way is upright is detestable to the wicked.
