^21 (A)If ^[a]your enemy is hungry, give him food to eat;
And if he is thirsty, give him water to drink;
²² For you will ^[b]heap burning coals on his head,
And ^(B)Yahweh will repay you.
²³ The north wind brings forth rain,
And a ^(C)tongue of secrets, an indignant face.
²⁴ It is ^(D)better to live in a corner of the roof
Than ^[c]in a house shared with a contentious woman.
²⁵ Like cold water to a weary soul,
So is a ^(E)good report from a distant land.
²⁶ Like a ^(F)muddied spring and a corrupted well
Is a righteous man shaking before the wicked.
²⁷ To eat too much honey is not good,
Nor is it glory to ^(G)search out ^[d]one’s own glory.
²⁸ Like a ^(H)city that is broken into and without a wall
Is a man ^(I)without restraint over his spirit.
