Proverbs 25:25-28
Tree of Life Version
25 Like cold water to a weary soul
is good news from a distant land.
26 Like a muddied spring or a polluted well
is a righteous person who yields before the wicked.
27 It is not good to eat too much honey,
or honorable to seek one’s own honor.
28 Like a city whose walls are broken down
is one with no control over his temper.
Proverbs 25:25-28
New International Version
25 Like cold water to a weary soul
is good news from a distant land.(A)
26 Like a muddied spring or a polluted well
are the righteous who give way to the wicked.
27 It is not good to eat too much honey,(B)
nor is it honorable to search out matters that are too deep.(C)
28 Like a city whose walls are broken through
is a person who lacks self-control.
