A full soul loathes a honeycomb;
but to a hungry soul, every bitter thing is sweet.
A full soul loathes a honeycomb;
but to a hungry soul, every bitter thing is sweet.
Proverbs 27:4–10
Wrath is cruel,
and anger is overwhelming;
but who is able to stand before jealousy?
Better is open rebuke
than hidden love.
The wounds of a friend are faithful,
although the kisses of an enemy are profuse.
A full soul loathes a honeycomb;
but to a hungry soul, every bitter thing is sweet.
As a bird that wanders from her nest,
so is a man who wanders from his home.
Perfume and incense bring joy to the heart;
so does earnest counsel from a man’s friend.
Don’t forsake your friend and your father’s friend.
Don’t go to your brother’s house in the day of your disaster.
A neighbor who is near is better than a distant brother.
