The wrath of a king is as messengers of death; But a wise man will pacify it.

The wrath of the king is like those who give news of death, but a wise man will put peace in place of it.

Θυμος βασιλεως ειναι αγγελος θανατου· αλλ' ο σοφος ανθρωπος καταπραυνει αυτον.

The wrath of a king is as messengers of death: but a wise man will pacify it.
