Proverbs 19:10

How To Avoid Fools And Foolishness

⁹ A false witness shall not be unpunished; And he that uttereth lies shall perish. ¹⁰ Delicate living is not seemly for a fool; Much less for a servant to have rule over princes. ¹¹ The discretion of a man maketh him slow to anger; And it is his glory to pass over a transgression.
