Proverbs 25:21-28

21IfH518 thine enemyH8130 be hungryH7457, giveH8248 him breadH3899 to eatH398; and ifH518 he be thirstyH6771, giveH8248 him waterH4325 to drinkH8248: 22For thou shalt heapH2846 coalsH1513 of fire uponH5921 his headH7218, and the LORDH3068 shall rewardH7999 thee. 23The northH6828 windH7307 bringeth forth rainH1653: soH6440 doth a backbiting tongueH3956 an angryH2194 countenanceH6440. 24It is betterH2896 to dwellH3427 in the comer of the housetopH1406, thanH2896 with a contentiousH4066 womanH802 in a wide houseH1004. 25As coldH7119 watersH4325 to a thirsty soulH5315, soH5921 is goodH2896 newsH8052 from a farH4801 countryH776. 26As a troubled fountainH4726, and a corruptedH7843 springH4599, soH6440 is a righteousH6662 manH7563 that giveth wayH6440 beforeH6440 the wickedH7563. 27It is notH3808 goodH2896 to eatH398 muchH7235 honeyH1706: soH3808 for men to searchH2714 outH2714 their own gloryH3519 is notH3808 gloryH3519. 28He whoseH834 spiritH7307 is withoutH369 restraint is like a cityH5892 that is brokenH6555 downH6555 and hath noH369 wallH2346.
