Proverbs 29:3-5
New Revised Standard Version Updated Edition
3 A child who loves wisdom makes a parent glad,
but a companion of prostitutes destroys wealth.(A)
4 By justice a king gives stability to the land,
but one who makes heavy exactions ruins it.
5 Whoever flatters a neighbor
is spreading a net for the neighbor’s feet.
