American Standard Version
Proverbs 19:9-16
9A false witness shall not be unpunished;And he that uttereth lies shall perish.10Delicate living is not seemly for a fool;Much less for a servant to have rule over princes.11The discretion of a man maketh him slow to anger;And it is his glory to pass over a transgression.12The king’s wrath is as the roaring of a lion;But his favor is as dew upon the grass.13A foolish son is the calamity of his father;And the contentions of a wife are a continual dropping.14House and riches are an inheritance from fathers;But a prudent wife is from Jehovah.15Slothfulness casteth into a deep sleep;And the idle soul shall suffer hunger.16He that keepeth the commandment keepeth his soul;But he that is careless of his ways shall die.
