Proverbs 20:28-30

The Voice

²⁸ Loyal love and faithfulness safeguard the king;
    his throne is perpetuated through loyal love.
²⁹ The best asset of youth is the strength of the body,
    but the beauty of age is gray hair.
³⁰ Severe punishment scrubs away evil,
    and tough blows scour the innermost parts.
