Proverbs 16:31


Proverbs 16:30 Proverbs 16:31 (KJV) Proverbs 16:32
He shutteth his eyes to devise froward things: moving his lips he bringeth evil to pass.
The hoary head [is] a crown of glory, [if] it be found in the way of righteousness.
[He that is] slow to anger [is] better than the mighty; and he that ruleth his spirit than he that taketh a city.
