Proverbs 19:11-13

Good News Translation

¹¹ If you are sensible, you will control your temper. When someone wrongs you, it is a great virtue to ignore it.

¹² The king's anger is like the roar of a lion, but his favor is like welcome rain.

¹³ Stupid children can bring their parents to ruin. A nagging wife is like water going drip-drip-drip.
