Proverbs 25:15-23

15By long forbearing is a rulerH7101 persuaded, and a softH7390 tongueH3956 breaketh the boneH1634.

16Hast thou foundH4672 honeyH1706? EatH398 so much as is sufficient for thee, lestH6435 thou be surfeited therewith, and vomitH6958 it.

17Let thy footH7272 be seldom in thy neighbour's houseH1004; lestH6435 he be weary of thee and hateH8130 thee.

18A maul, and a swordH2719, and a sharp arrowH2671, is a manH376 that beareth false witnessH5707 against his neighbour.

19A broken toothH8127, and a tottering footH7272, is confidenceH4009 in an unfaithful [man] in the dayH3117 of troubleH6869.

20[As] he that taketh off a garmentH899 in cold weather, [and as] vinegarH2558 upon nitre, so is he that singeth songsH7892 to a sad heartH3820.

21If thine enemy be hungryH7457, giveH8248 him breadH3899 to eatH398; and if he be thirstyH6771, giveH8248 him waterH4325 to drinkH8248:

22for thou shalt heap coalsH1513 of fire upon his headH7218, and Jehovah shall rewardH7999 thee.

23The northH6828 windH7307 bringeth forth rainH1653, and the angry countenance a backbiting tongueH3956.
