Proverbs 16:31-33

New International Version

³¹Gray hair is a crown of splendor;^(A)
it is attained in the way of righteousness.

³²Better a patient person than a warrior,
one with self-control than one who takes a city.

³³The lot is cast^(B) into the lap,
but its every decision^(C) is from the Lord.^(D)

Proverbs 16:31-33

King James Version

³¹The hoary head is a crown of glory, if it be found in the way of righteousness.

³²He that is slow to anger is better than the mighty; and he that ruleth his spirit than he that taketh a city.

³³The lot is cast into the lap; but the whole disposing thereof is of the Lord.

³¹^(A)The silver-haired head is a crown of glory,
If it is found in the way of righteousness.

³²^(B)He who is slow to anger is better than the mighty,
And he who rules his spirit than he who takes a city.

³³The lot is cast into the lap,
But its every decision is from the Lord.
