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.
