Proverbs 25:14-16
English Standard Version

14 Like (A)clouds and wind without rain
    is a man who (B)boasts of a gift he does not give.

15 With (C)patience a ruler may be persuaded,
    and a soft tongue will break a bone.
16 If you have (D)found honey, eat (E)only enough for you,
    lest you have your fill of it and vomit it.
