Proverbs 19:10-15 New American Bible, Revised Edition (NABRE)

10. Luxury is not befitting a fool;much less should a slave rule over princes.

11. It is good sense to be slow to anger,and an honor to overlook an offense.

12. The king’s wrath is like the roar of a lion,but his favor, like dew on the grass.

13. The foolish son is ruin to his father,and a quarrelsome wife is water constantly dripping.

14. Home and possessions are an inheritance from parents,but a prudent wife is from the Lord.

15. Laziness brings on deep sleep,and the sluggard goes hungry.
