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 coals of fire on his head and Adonai will reward you.

23A north wind brings rain, and a backbiting tongue angry faces.

24Better to dwell in a corner of a roof than share a house with a quarrelsome wife.

25Like cold water to a weary soul is good news from a distant land.

26Like a muddied spring or a polluted well is a righteous person who yields before the wicked.

27It is not good to eat too much honey, or honorable to seek one’s own honor.

28Like a city whose walls are broken down is one with no control over his temper.
