Proverbs 20:1-3 New English Translation (NET)

1. Wine is a mocker and strong drink is a brawler;whoever goes astray by them is not wise.

2. The king’s terrifying anger is like the roar of a lion;whoever provokes him sins against himself.

3. It is an honor for a person to cease from strife,but every fool quarrels.
