Proverbs 14:27-30
New American Standard Bible

Chapter 14

27 The fear of the Lord is a fountain of life, By which one may avoid the snares of death. 28In a multitude of people is a king’s glory, But in the scarcity of people is a prince’s ruin. 29One who is slow to anger has great understanding; But one who is quick-tempered exalts foolishness. 30A tranquil heart is life to the body, But jealousy is rottenness to the bones.
King James Version

29He that is slow to wrath is of great understanding: but he that is hasty of spirit exalteth folly.
30A sound heart is the life of the flesh: but envy the rottenness of the bones.
Christian Standard Bible
