Proverbs 20:2-8 New International Version Anglicized (NIVUK)

2. A king’s wrath strikes terror like the roar of a lion;those who anger him forfeit their lives.

3. It is to one’s honour to avoid strife,but every fool is quick to quarrel.

4. Sluggards do not plough in season;so at harvest time they look but find nothing.

5. The purposes of a person’s heart are deep waters,but one who has insight draws them out.

6. Many claim to have unfailing love,but a faithful person who can find?

7. The righteous lead blameless lives;blessed are their children after them.

8. When a king sits on his throne to judge,he winnows out all evil with his eyes.
