Proverbs

¹Boast not thyself of tomorrow; for thou knowest not what a day may bring forth. ²Let another man praise thee, and not thine own mouth; a stranger, and not thine own lips. ³A stone is heavy, and the sand weighty; but a fool's vexation is heavier than them both. ⁴Wrath is cruel, and anger is outrageous; but who is able to stand before jealousy? ⁵Better is open rebuke than love that is hidden. ⁶Faithful are the wounds of a friend: but the kisses of an enemy are profuse. ⁷The full soul loatheth an honeycomb: but to the hungry soul every bitter thing is sweet.
