Proverbs 14:27-29
New King James Version

27 (A)The fear of the Lord is a fountain of life,
To turn one away from the snares of death.

28 In a multitude of people is a king’s honor,
But in the lack of people is the downfall of a prince.

29 (B)He who is slow to wrath has great understanding,
But he who is [a]impulsive exalts folly.
