Proverbs 16:13-15
Common English Bible
13 Kings favor those with righteous lips;
they love words of integrity.
14 The king’s anger is a messenger of death;
the wise will calm him.
15 There’s life in the light of the king’s face.
His favor is like a cloud that brings spring rain.
Proverbs 16:13-15
New International Version

15 In the light of the king's countenance is life; and his favour is as a cloud of the latter rain.
