25 As cold water is to a thirsty soul, so is good news from a far country.
26 A righteous man falling down before the wicked is as a muddied fountain, and a polluted spring.
27 It is not good to eat much honey: so for men to search out their own glory is not glory.
28 He that has no rule over his own spirit is like a city that is broken down, and without walls.
