Proverbs 19:8-13

Proverbs 19:8-13 NCV

Those who get wisdom do themselves a favor, and those who love learning will succeed. A witness who lies will not go free, liars will die. A fool should not live in luxury. A slave should not rule over princes. The wise are patient; they will be honored if they ignore insults. An angry king is like a roaring lion, but his kindness is like the dew on the grass. A foolish child brings disaster to a father, and a quarreling wife is like dripping water.
