Proverbs 19:11-13
New Catholic Bible
11 A man with good sense is slow to anger,
and he earns glory for overlooking an offense.
12 A king’s anger is like the roaring of a lion,
but his favor is like dew on the grass.
13 A foolish son[a] is a calamity to his father,
and a nagging wife is like an endless dripping of water.
