Proverbs 27:1-6

1Do not brag about tomorrow, because you do not know what another day may bring.

2Praise should come from another person and not from your own mouth, from a stranger and not from your own lips.

3A stone is heavy, and sand weighs a lot, but annoyance caused by a stubborn fool is heavier than both.

4Anger is cruel, and fury is overwhelming, but who can survive jealousy?

5Open criticism is better than unexpressed love.

6Wounds made by a friend are intended to help, but an enemy’s kisses are too much to bear.
