Proverbs 22:15-17

Revised Geneva Translation

¹⁵ Foolishness is bound up in the heart of a child. But the rod of correction shall drive it away from him.

¹⁶ He who oppresses the poor for his own gain, giving to the rich, shall surely come to poverty.

¹⁷ Incline your ear, and hear the words of the wise, and apply your heart to my knowledge.
