Proverbs 16:15-17

Common English Bible

¹⁵ There’s life in the light of the king’s face.
    His favor is like a cloud that brings spring rain.
¹⁶ Acquiring wisdom is much better than gold,
    and acquiring understanding is better than silver.
¹⁷ The road of those who do right turns away from evil;
    those who protect their path guard their lives.
