Proverbs 19:12

How To Avoid Fools And Foolishness

¹¹ A person’s insight gives him patience,
and his virtue is to overlook an offense. ¹² A king’s rage is like the roaring of a lion,
but his favor is like dew on the grass. ¹³ A foolish son is his father’s ruin,
and a wife’s nagging is an endless dripping.
