Proverbs 25:15-17
Christian Standard Bible
15 A ruler can be persuaded through patience,
and a gentle tongue can break a bone.(A)
16 If you find honey,(B) eat only what you need;
otherwise, you’ll get sick from it and vomit.(C)
17 Seldom set foot in your neighbor’s house;
otherwise, he’ll get sick of you and hate you.
Proverbs 25:15-17

too much of it, and you will vomit.(C)
17 Seldom set foot in your neighbor’s house—
too much of you, and they will hate you.
