Proverbs 29:13-15
Expanded Bible
13 The poor person and the ·cruel person [oppressor] are alike
in that the Lord gave light to the eyes of both of them.
14 If a king judges poor people ·fairly [in truth; reliably],
his ·government [L throne] will ·continue [be established] forever.
15 Correction and ·punishment [L the rod] make children wise,
but those ·left alone [unsupervised] will disgrace their mother.
Proverbs 29:13-15

13 The poor and the oppressor have this in common:
The Lord gives sight to the eyes of both.(A)

his throne will be established forever.(B)

but a child left undisciplined disgraces its mother.(C)
