Proverbs 25:19-21
Easy-to-Read Version
19 Never depend on a liar in times of trouble. It’s like chewing with a bad tooth or walking with a crippled foot.
20 Singing happy songs to a sad person is as foolish as taking a coat off on a cold day or mixing soda and vinegar.
21 If your enemies are hungry, give them something to eat. If they are thirsty, give them some water.

Proverbs 25:19-21
New International Version
19 Like a broken tooth or a lame foot
is reliance on the unfaithful in a time of trouble.
20 Like one who takes away a garment on a cold day,
or like vinegar poured on a wound,
is one who sings songs to a heavy heart.
21 If your enemy is hungry, give him food to eat;
if he is thirsty, give him water to drink.
