Proverbs 27:1-6

1Boast not thyself of to morrow; for thou knowest not what a day may bring forth.1

2Let another man praise thee, and not thy own mouth; a stranger, and not thy own lips.

3A stoneisheavy, and the sand weighty; but a fool’s wrathisheavier than both.2 4Wrath is cruel, and anger is outrageous; but who is able to stand before envy?3 4

5Open rebukeisbetter than secret love. 6Faithful are the wounds of a friend; but the kisses of an enemy are deceitful.5
