Proverbs 20:1-3

Amplified Bible

20 Wine is a mocker, strong drink a riotous brawler;
And whoever is intoxicated by it is not wise.^(A)
2 
The terror of a king is like the roaring of a lion;
Whoever provokes him to anger forfeits his own life.
³ 
It is an honor for a man to keep away from strife [by handling situations with thoughtful foresight],
But any fool will [start a] quarrel [without regard for the consequences].
