Proverbs 25:23-28 English Revised Version (ERV)

23. The north wind bringeth forth rain: so doth a backbiting tongue an angry countenance.

24. It is better to dwell in the comer of the housetop, than with a contentious woman in a wide house.

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 not glory.

28. He whose spirit is without restraint is like a city that is broken down and hath no wall.
