SEV Biblia, Chapter 29:19

¶ El siervo no se castigará con palabras; porque entiende, mas no hace caso.

John Gill's Bible Commentary

Ver. 19. A
servant will not be corrected by words , etc.] Not by them only, especially one that is of a servile, surly, and untractable disposition; otherwise a good servant, and well disposed to his master, and willing to serve him, and promote his interest, a word is sufficient for such an one; when he is bid to go, he goes; or to come, he comes, ( Matthew 8:9); or if he has done wrong, and his fault is told him, he will amend another time; whereas a rough ill natured servant will not regard words, but must have blows to correct him; for though he understand ; what his master says, and what is his will, and knows he has done wrong, and ought to do otherwise, which is an aggravation of sin: he will not answer ; own his fault and promise to do better for the future; through the surliness of his nature, and contempt of his master, whom he does not think worthy of an answer: so the Vulgate Latin version renders it, “he despises to answer”; thus Job was used by his servants, ( Job 19:16); There is an answering which is forbidden servants, ( Titus 2:9); but this what becomes them, and is expressive of their respect and reverence to their masters, and their ready, hearty, and cheerful obedience to them; and which especially should be in Christian servants to Christian masters, ( 1 Timothy 6:1 Ephesians 6:5-7).

Matthew Henry Commentary

Verses 19 - Here is an
unprofitable, slothful, wicked servant; one that serves no from conscience, or love, but from fear.
