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