Proverbs
Chapters 25:24-28
New International Version Anglicized
24Better to live on a corner of the roofthan share a house with a quarrelsome wife.
25Like cold water to a weary soulis good news from a distant land.
26Like a muddied spring or a polluted wellare the righteous who give way to the wicked.
27It is not good to eat too much honey,nor is it honourable to search out matters that are too deep.
28Like a city whose walls are broken throughis a person who lacks self-control.
