Proverbs 25:17

As clouds and wind without rain,

so is he who boasts of gifts deceptively.

By patience a ruler is persuaded.

A soft tongue breaks the bone.

Have you found honey?

Eat as much as is sufficient for you,

lest you eat too much, and vomit it.

A man who gives false testimony against his neighbor

is like a club, a sword, or a sharp arrow.

Confidence in someone unfaithful in time of trouble

is like a bad tooth or a lame foot.

As one who takes away a garment in cold weather,

or vinegar on soda,

so is one who sings songs to a heavy heart.
