24 Better to live upon the corner of a roof than with a woman of contention and in a shared house.
25 Like cold water upon a weary soul, so too is good news from a distant place.
26 Like a muddied spring or a polluted fountain is the righteous who gives way before the wicked.
27 To eat much honey is not good, nor is seeking one’s honor honorable.
28 A breached city where there is no wall is like a man who has no self-control for his spirit.
