English Standard Version
Proverbs 25:21-28
21If your enemy is hungry, give him bread to eat, and if he is thirsty, give him water to drink,
22for you will heap burning coals on his head, and the Lord will reward you.
23The north wind brings forth rain, and a backbiting tongue, angry looks.
24It is better to live in a corner of the housetop than in a house shared with a quarrelsome wife.
25Like cold water to a thirsty soul, so is good news from a far country.
26Like a muddied spring or a polluted fountain is a righteous man who gives way before the wicked.
27It is not good to eat much honey, nor is it glorious to seek one's own glory.
28A man without self-control is like a city broken into and left without walls.
