Proverbs 16:14-16

Evangelical Heritage Version

¹⁴ The king’s anger is a messenger of death,
but a wise person can appease it.
¹⁵ There is life in the light from a king’s face,
and his favor is like a cloud that brings spring rain.
¹⁶ How much better to acquire wisdom rather than gold,
and to acquire understanding is more desirable than silver.
