Proverbs 20:29


Proverbs 20:28 Proverbs 20:29 (KJV) Proverbs 20:30
Mercy and truth preserve the king: and his throne is upholden by mercy.
The glory of young men [is] their strength: and the beauty of old men [is] the gray head.
The blueness of a wound cleanseth away evil: so [do] stripes the inward parts of the belly.
