Proverbs 19:10

How To Avoid Fools And Foolishness

⁹ A false witness shall not be unpunished, and one speaking lies shall perish. ¹⁰ Luxury is not becoming for a fool; much less for a servant to have rule over princes. ¹¹ The judgment of a man puts off his anger; and it is his glory to pass over a transgression.
