Proverbs 25:26-28

Darby Translation

²⁶ A troubled fountain, and a defiled well, is a righteous [man] that giveth way before the wicked.

²⁷ It is not good to eat much honey; and to search into weighty matters is [itself] a weight.

²⁸ He that hath no rule over his own spirit is [as] a city broken down, without walls.
