Proverbs 19:10-12

New International Reader's Version

¹⁰ It isn’t proper for a foolish person to live in great comfort.
    And it is much worse when a slave rules over princes!

¹¹ A person’s wisdom makes them patient.
    They will be honored if they forgive someone who sins against them.

¹² A king’s anger is like a lion’s roar.
    But his favor is like dew on the grass.
