Proverbs 14:28-30

The Voice

²⁸ A king’s splendor is in his many people,
    but a declining population will lead to his ruin.
²⁹ Whoever is patient and slow to anger shows great understanding,
    but whoever has a quick temper magnifies his foolishness.
³⁰ A serene heart can add years to one’s life;
    but jealous passion rots the bones.
