Proverbs 16:15-17

Amplified Bible, Classic Edition

¹⁵ In the light of the king’s countenance is life, and his favor is as a cloud bringing the spring rain.

¹⁶ How much better it is to get skillful and godly Wisdom than gold! And to get understanding is to be chosen rather than silver.^(A)

¹⁷ The highway of the upright turns aside from evil; he who guards his way preserves his life.
