Proverbs 29:19
Berean Standard Bible
A servant cannot be corrected by words alone; though he understands, he will not respond.
Context
17Discipline your son, and he will give you rest;
he will bring delight to your soul. 18Where there is no vision, the people cast off restraint;
but blessed is he who keeps the Law. 19A servant cannot be corrected by words alone;
though he understands, he will not respond. 20Do you see a man who speaks in haste?
There is more hope for a fool than for him. 21A servant pampered from his youth
will bring grief in the end.
