[19:12]  1 sn The verse contrasts the “rage” of the king with his “favor” by using two similes. The first simile presents the king at his most dangerous – his anger (e.g., 20:2; Amos 3:4). The second simile presents his favor as beneficial for life (e.g., 16:14-15; 28:15).

[19:12]  2 tn Heb “is a roaring like a lion.”

[19:12]  3 sn The proverb makes an observation about a king’s power to terrify or to refresh. It advises people to use tact with a king.

[19:14]  4 tn Heb “inheritance of fathers” (so KJV, ASV, NASB).

[19:14]  5 sn This statement describes a wife who has a skillful use of knowledge and discretion that proves to be successful. This contrasts with the preceding verse. The proverb is not concerned about unhappy marriages or bad wives (both of which exist); it simply affirms that when a marriage works out well one should credit it as a gift from God.
