American Standard Version

Proverbs 25:25-28 American Standard Version (ASV)

25. As cold waters to a thirsty soul, So is good news from a far country.

26. As a troubled fountain, and a corrupted spring, So is a righteous man that giveth way before the wicked.

27. It is not good to eat much honey: So for men to search out their own glory is grievous.

28. He whose spirit is without restraint Is like a city that is broken down and without walls.
