Proverbs 16:13-15

New Revised Standard Version Catholic Edition

¹³ Righteous lips are the delight of a king,
    and he loves those who speak what is right.
¹⁴ A king’s wrath is a messenger of death,
    and whoever is wise will appease it.
¹⁵ In the light of a king’s face there is life,
    and his favor is like the clouds that bring the spring rain.
