Protestant Bible · KJV · Verse 12 of 29

"The king's wrath as the roaring of a lion; but his favour as dew upon the grass."
Proverbs 19:12

In context

10Delight is not seemly for a fool; much less for a servant to have rule over princes.

11The discretion of a man deferreth his anger; and his glory to pass over a transgression.

12The king's wrath as the roaring of a lion; but his favour as dew upon the grass.

13A foolish son the calamity of his father: and the contentions of a wife a continual dropping.

14House and riches the inheritance of fathers: and a prudent wife from the LORD.
