Proverbs 16:28-33 Catholic Public Domain Version (CPDV)

28. A perverse man stirs up lawsuits. And one who is verbose divides leaders.

29. A man of iniquity entices his friend, and he leads him along a way that is not good.

30. Whoever, with astonished eyes, thinks up depravities, biting his lips, accomplishes evil.

31. Old age is a crown of dignity, when it is found in the ways of justice.

32. A patient man is better than a strong one. And whoever rules his soul is better than one who assaults cities.

33. Lots are cast into the lap, but they are tempered by the Lord.
