Proverbs 14:28-30
New American Standard Bible 1995
28 In a multitude of people is a king’s glory,
But in the dearth of people is a prince’s ruin.
29 He who is (A)slow to anger has great understanding,
But he who is [a]quick-tempered exalts folly.
30 A (B)tranquil heart is life to the body,
But passion is (C)rottenness to the bones.
