PROVERBS 19:12 — KING JAMES VERSION 0
“The king’s wrath is as the roaring of a lion; but his favour is as dew upon the grass.”
A king's rage is like the roar of a lion, but his favor is like dew on the grass—the simile captures the terrifying and rejuvenating extremes of royal power, using natural imagery to teach that those under authority live perpetually between threat and blessing.
