Proverbs 19:10-12

New Life Version

¹⁰It is not right for a fool to live in great comfort, and for sure, for a servant to rule over rulers.

¹¹A man’s understanding makes him slow to anger. It is to his honor to forgive and forget a wrong done to him.

¹²The king’s anger is like the noise of a lion, but his favor is like morning water upon the grass.

Proverbs 19:10-12

New International Version

¹⁰It is not fitting for a fool^(A) to live in luxury—
how much worse for a slave to rule over princes!^(B)

¹¹A person’s wisdom yields patience;^(C)
it is to one’s glory to overlook an offense.

¹²A king’s rage is like the roar of a lion,^(D)
but his favor is like dew^(E) on the grass.^(F)
