Proverbs 27:1-10

1BoastH1984 not thyself of to-morrow; For thou knowest not what a dayH3117 may bringH3205 forthH3205.2Let another man praiseH1984 thee, and not thine own mouthH6310; A stranger, and not thine own lipsH8193.3A stoneH68 is heavyH3515, and the sandH2344 weighty; But a fool’sH191 vexation is heavierH3515 than they both.4WrathH2534 is cruel, and angerH639 is overwhelming; But who is able to standH5975 before jealousyH7068?5Better is open rebukeH8433 Than loveH160 that is hiddenH5641.6FaithfulH539 are the woundsH6482 of a friendH157; But the kisses of an enemy are profuse.7The full soulH5315 loatheth a honeycomb; But to the hungryH7457 soulH5315 every bitterH4751 thing is sweetH4966.8As a birdH6833 that wandereth from her nestH7064, SoH3651 is a manH376 that wandereth from his placeH4725.9OilH8081 and perfume rejoiceH8055 the heartH3820; So doth the sweetnessH4986 of a man’s friendH7453 that cometh of hearty counselH6098.10Thine own friendH7453, and thy father’sH1 friendH7453, forsakeH5800 not; And goH935 not to thy brother’sH251 houseH1004 in the dayH3117 of thy calamityH343: Better is a neighborH7453 that is near than a brotherH251 farH7350 off.
