PROVERBS 20:2-7

²The terror of a king is as the roaring of a lion: he that provoketh him to anger sinneth against his own life.

³It is an honour for a man to keep aloof from strife: but every fool will be quarrelling.

⁴The slothful will not plow by reason of the winter; therefore he shall beg in harvest, and have nothing.

⁵Counsel in the heart of man is like deep water; but a man of understanding will draw it out.

⁶Most men wilt proclaim every one his own kindness: but a faithful man who can find?

⁷A just man that walketh in his integrity, blessed are his children after him.
