Proverbs 19:9-11
Evangelical Heritage Version
9 A false witness will not go unpunished.
He breathes lies, and he will perish.
10 A life of luxury is not appropriate for a fool.
How much less appropriate for a slave to rule over princes.
11 Good sense makes a person slow to anger,
and it is to his credit when he overlooks an offense.
Proverbs 19:9-11
New International Version
9 A false witness will not go unpunished,
and whoever pours out lies will perish.(A)
10 It is not fitting for a fool(B) to live in luxury—
how much worse for a slave to rule over princes!(C)
11 A person’s wisdom yields patience;(D)
it is to one’s glory to overlook an offense.
