Proverbs 19:11-13
1599 Geneva Bible
11 The discretion of man deferreth his anger: and his glory is [a]to pass by an offence.
12 (A)The king’s wrath is like the roaring of a lion: but his favor is like the dew upon the grass.
13 (B)A foolish son is the calamity of his father, (C)and the contentions of a wife are like a continual [b]dropping.
