manager or a leader is not deemed to be a leader.

29 He who is slow to wrath has great understanding,

But he who is impulsive[c] exalts folly. (Proverbs 14:29) (NKJV)

 

29 He who is slow to anger has great

understanding,

but he who has a hasty temper exalts folly. (Proverbs 14:29)

(RSV)

 29 Whoever is patient has great understanding,

but one who is quick-tempered displays folly. (Proverbs 14:29)

(NIV)

Exalteth - Heb. lifteth up, like a banner, makes it known and visible to all men.

The person who is patient and slow to anger, is somebody who when

anger will not take hasty reaction which is unwise and later

regretted, and not say something rash which will be later regretted.

Be slow to react when angered, this way shows that the person is an

understanding and wise person.

Try to understand the other party. Do not be so angry. Try tounderstand the reason the other party is causing the anger.

The person who is hot tempered will react very fast when angered.

Hasty speech, hasty reaction may cause a greater tension, a bigger

argument, a quarrel, or even a fight.

oppress or take advantage of the poor people, he is giving no respect

to God because God created all people, rich and poor. Whoever does

not give face to the poor people, God's creation, is not giving face to

God.

  (Proverbs 14:32) (RSV)

 

The wicked is brought down because of punishment for his

wickedness. The wicked may lose his life, may lose his riches and

wealth, may lose his power and honour, may lose his health, all

because of his bad doings.

The righteous person will always trust God and seek refuge in God.

Even in dangers, in disaster, in i ll health, in poverty, the righteous

will persist in his trust in God. Even death will not shake his trust

and believe in God Almighty.

32 The wicked is banished in his wickedness,

But the righteous has a refuge in his death. (Proverbs 14:32)(NKJV)

 32 The wicked is overthrown through his evil-doing,

but the righteous finds refuge through his integrity.[ j]

Resteth - Is laid up and hid there. In the midst - In the heart. Made known - They will publish

in all times and companies.

 

33 Wisdom abides in the mind of a man of understanding,

but it is not[k] known in the heart of fools. (Proverbs 14:33)

(RSV)

For the wise person, he doesn't boast of his wisdom, or show off his

knowledge. He keeps his wisdom and knowledge in the heart.

Wisdom is to be used in life, not something to show off or to brag

about.

For the foolish person, he may brag about the limited knowledge that

he has. The fact that a person tries to show off his wisdom and

knowledge is indeed folly.

34 Righteousness exalts a nation,

But sin is a reproach to any  people. (Proverbs 14:34) (NKJV)

 34 Righteousness exalts a nation,

but sin condemns any people. (Proverbs 14:34) (NIV)

Justice in a country, equality between people of al l races and

religions, equality between men and women, integrity in the society

are all good practices that will exalt a country. The country will be

respected and honoured by people and by God.

On the contrary, if the people continually sin against God and men,

and forsake the commands of God, these people wil l be chastised

and punished for their evil doing. But God will forgive if the people

turn back to God again and repent.

35 The king’s favor is toward a wise servant,

But his wrath is against  him who causes shame. (Proverbs 14:35)

(NKJV)

 35 A servant who deals wisely has the king’s favor,

but his wrath falls on one who acts shamefully. (Proverbs14:35) (RSV)

Shame - Both to himself, by his foolish management of the king's affairs, and to the king who

made so foolish a choice of a servant.

 35 A servant who deals wisely has the king’s favor,

but his wrath falls on one who acts shamefully. (Proverbs

14:35) (NIV)

A manager naturally likes staff who can perform their work well and

wisely. A boss likes the employees who are work diligently and

wisely. But the manager and the boss will be angry with the staff 

who does work that is shameful, for example, sending a wrong

invoice to customer, sending wrong goods to customer, poor service

to customer resulting in a complaint.
