“Luxury is unseemly for a fool — how much worse for a slave to rule over princes!”
Proverbs 19:10 (BSB)
Context Reading
8He who acquires wisdom loves himself; one who safeguards understanding will find success. 9A false witness will not go unpunished, and one who pours out lies will perish. 10Luxury is unseemly for a fool — how much worse for a slave to rule over princes! 11A man’s insight gives him patience, and his virtue is to overlook an offense. 12A king’s rage is like the roar of a lion, but his favor is like dew on the grass.
