Proverbs 27:1-6

1Do not boast about tomorrow, For you do not know what a day may bring forth.

2Let another man praise you, and not your own mouth; A stranger, and not your own lips.

3A stone is heavy and sand is weighty, But a fool’s wrath is heavier than both of them.

4Wrath is cruel and anger a torrent, But who is able to stand before jealousy?

5Open rebuke is better Than love carefully concealed.

6Faithful are the wounds of a friend, But the kisses of an enemy are deceitful.
