Proverbs 16:14

VisdomSinneMyndighet og lederskap

12 Wicked behavior is detestable to kings, for a throne is established through righteousness.

13 Righteous lips are a king’s delight, and he who speaks honestly is beloved.

The wrath of a king is a messenger of death, but a wise man will pacify it.

15 When a king’s face brightens, there is life; his favor is like a rain cloud in spring.

16 How much better to acquire wisdom than gold! To gain understanding is more desirable than silver.
