Proverbs 29:13-15

New Revised Standard Version Catholic Edition

¹³ The poor and the oppressor have this in common:
    the Lord gives light to the eyes of both.
¹⁴ If a king judges the poor with equity,
    his throne will be established forever.
¹⁵ The rod and reproof give wisdom,
    but a mother is disgraced by a neglected child.
