“ Who then is the faithful and wise servant, whom his lord has set over his household, to give them their food in due season?Blessed is that servant whom his lord finds doing so when he comes.Most certainly I tell you that he will set him over all that he has.But if that evil servant should say in his heart,‘ My lord is delaying his coming,’and begins to beat his fellow servants, and eat and drink with the drunkards,the lord of that servant will come in a day when he doesn’t expect it, and in an hour when he doesn’t know it,and will cut him in pieces, and appoint his portion with the hypocrites. That is where the weeping and grinding of teeth will be.

He who loves purity of heart and speaks gracefully is the king’s friend.

The king’s wrath is like the roaring of a lion, but his favor is like dew on the grass.A foolish son is the calamity of his father. A wife’s quarrels are a continual dripping.

The Lord said,“ Who then is the faithful and wise steward, whom his lord will set over his household, to give them their portion of food at the right times?Blessed is that servant whom his lord will find doing so when he comes.Truly I tell you, that he will set him over all that he has.But if that servant says in his heart,‘ My lord delays his coming,’ and begins to beat the menservants and the maidservants, and to eat and drink, and to be drunken,then the lord of that servant will come in a day when he isn’t expecting him, and in an hour that he doesn’t know, and will cut him in two, and place his portion with the unfaithful.That servant, who knew his lord’s will, and didn’t prepare, nor do what he wanted, will be beaten with many stripes,but he who didn’t know, and did things worthy of stripes, will be beaten with few stripes. To whomever much is given, of him will much be required; and to whom much was entrusted, of him more will be asked.

If a ruler listens to lies, all of his officials are wicked.

Take away the wicked from the king’s presence, and his throne will be established in righteousness.

“ His lord said to him,‘ Well done, good and faithful servant. You have been faithful over a few things, I will set you over many things. Enter into the joy of your lord.’

He who gathers in summer is a wise son, but he who sleeps during the harvest is a son who causes shame.

He who robs his father and drives away his mother, is a son who causes shame and brings reproach.

A wise king winnows out the wicked, and drives the threshing wheel over them.

“ His lord said to him,‘ Well done, good and faithful servant. You have been faithful over a few things, I will set you over many things. Enter into the joy of your lord.’

A perverse heart will be far from me. I will have nothing to do with evil.I will silence whoever secretly slanders his neighbor. I won’t tolerate one who is arrogant and conceited.My eyes will be on the faithful of the land, that they may dwell with me. He who walks in a perfect way, he will serve me.He who practices deceit won’t dwell within my house. He who speaks falsehood won’t be established before my eyes.Morning by morning, I will destroy all the wicked of the land, to cut off all the workers of iniquity from Yahweh’s city.

A king who sits on the throne of judgment scatters away all evil with his eyes.
