Proverbs 16:14-16
Revised Standard Version
14 A king’s wrath is a messenger of death,
and a wise man will appease it.
15 In the light of a king’s face there is life,
and his favor is like the clouds that bring the spring rain.
16 To get wisdom is better[a] than gold;
to get understanding is to be chosen rather than silver.
