Proverbs 19:19-21

The Message

¹⁹ Let angry people endure the backlash of their own anger;
    if you try to make it better, you’ll only make it worse.

²⁰ Take good counsel and accept correction—
    that’s the way to live wisely and well.

²¹ We humans keep brainstorming options and plans,
    but God’s purpose prevails.
