Proverbs 16:30-32

New International Version

³⁰Whoever winks^(A) with their eye is plotting perversity;
whoever purses their lips is bent on evil.

³¹Gray hair is a crown of splendor;^(B)
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.

Proverbs 16:30-32

King James Version

³⁰He shutteth his eyes to devise froward things: moving his lips he bringeth evil to pass.

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.

³⁰He winks his eye to devise perverse things;
He ^[a]purses his lips and brings about evil.

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.
