Proverbs 19:10-12

Contemporary English Version

¹⁰ It isn't right for a fool
    to live in luxury
or for a slave to rule
    in place of a king.
¹¹ It's wise to be patient
and show what you are like
    by forgiving others.
¹² An angry king roars
    like a lion,
but when a king is pleased,
    it's like dew on the crops.
