Proverbs 16:14-16

New American Standard Bible 1995

¹⁴ The fury of a king is like messengers of death,
But a wise man will appease it.
¹⁵ In the light of a king’s face is life,
And his favor is like a cloud with the ^[a](A)spring rain.
¹⁶ How much ^(B)better it is to get wisdom than gold!
And to get understanding is to be chosen above silver.
