Proverbs 19:10-12
Revised Standard Version Catholic Edition
10 It is not fitting for a fool to live in luxury,
much less for a slave to rule over princes.
11 Good sense makes a man slow to anger,
and it is his glory to overlook an offense.
12 A king’s wrath is like the growling of a lion,
but his favor is like dew upon the grass.
Proverbs 19:10-12
New International Version
10 It is not fitting for a fool(A) to live in luxury—
how much worse for a slave to rule over princes!(B)
11 A person’s wisdom yields patience;(C)
it is to one’s glory to overlook an offense.
