New King James Version

Proverbs 16:27-32 New King James Version (NKJV)

27. An ungodly man digs up evil,And it is on his lips like a burning fire.

28. A perverse man sows strife,And a whisperer separates the best of friends.

29. A violent man entices his neighbor,And leads him in a way that is not good.

30. He winks his eye to devise perverse things;He purses his lips and brings about evil.

31. The silver-haired head is a crown of glory,If it is found in the way of righteousness.

32. He who is slow to anger is better than the mighty,And he who rules his spirit than he who takes a city.
