Bible in Basic English
"The grey head is a crown of glory, if it is seen in the way of righteousness."
— Proverbs 16:31, Bible in Basic English
“The hoary head is a crown of glory, if it be found in the way of righteousness.”
A man of twisted purposes is a cause of fighting everywhere: and he who says evil secretly makes trouble between friends.
A violent man puts desire of evil into his neighbour's mind, and makes him go in a way which is not good.
He whose eyes are shut is a man of twisted purposes, and he who keeps his lips shut tight makes evil come about.
The grey head is a crown of glory, if it is seen in the way of righteousness.
He who is slow to be angry is better than a man of war, and he who has control over his spirit than he who takes a town.
A thing may be put to the decision of chance, but it comes about through the Lord.
