Proverbs 19:11-13
Amplified Bible
11
Good sense and discretion make a man slow to anger,
And it is his honor and glory to overlook a transgression or an offense [without seeking revenge and harboring resentment].
12
The king’s wrath terrifies like the roaring of a lion,
But his favor is as [refreshing and nourishing as] dew on the grass.(A)
13
A foolish (ungodly) son is destruction to his father,
And the contentions of a [quarrelsome] wife are like a constant dripping [of water].
Proverbs 19:11-13
New International Version
11 A person’s wisdom yields patience;(A)
it is to one’s glory to overlook an offense.
