Proverbs 19:10 Context
8He that getteth wisedome loueth his owne soule: he that keepeth vnderstanding shall find good. 9A false witnesse shall not be vnpunished, and hee that speaketh lyes, shall perish. 10Delight is not seemely for a foole: much lesse for a seruant to haue rule ouer princes. 11The discretion of a man deferreth his anger: and it is his glory to passe ouer a transgression. 12The kings wrath is as the roaring of a lyon: but his fauour is as dewe vpon the grasse.
