Proverbs 16:30-32

Amplified Bible, Classic Edition

³⁰ He who shuts his eyes to devise perverse things and who compresses his lips [as if in concealment] brings evil to pass.

³¹ The hoary head is a crown of beauty and glory if it is found in the way of righteousness (moral and spiritual rectitude in every area and relation).^(A)

³² He who is slow to anger is better than the mighty, he who rules his [own] spirit than he who takes a city.
