New Testament

Proverbs 16:28-32 New International Version (NIV)

28. A perverse person stirs up conflict, and a gossip separates close friends.

29. A violent person entices their neighbor and leads them down a path that is not good.

30. Whoever winks with their eye is plotting perversity; whoever purses their lips is bent on evil.

31. Gray hair is a crown of splendor; it is attained in the way of righteousness.

32. Better a patient person than a warrior, one with self-control than one who takes a city.
