Proverbs 27:14-17
English Standard Version
14 Whoever blesses his neighbor with a loud voice,
rising early in the morning,
will be counted as cursing.
15 (A)A continual dripping on a rainy day
and a quarrelsome wife are alike;
16 to restrain her is to restrain the wind
or to grasp[a] oil in one's right hand.
17 Iron sharpens iron,
and one man sharpens another.[b]
