Proverbs 14:26-29 New International Version (NIV)

26. Whoever fears the Lord has a secure fortress, and for their children it will be a refuge.

27. The fear of the Lord is a fountain of life, turning a person from the snares of death.

28. A large population is a king’s glory, but without subjects a prince is ruined.

29. Whoever is patient has great understanding, but one who is quick-tempered displays folly.
