Proverbs 25:17-25 King James 2000 (KJ2000)

17. Withdraw your foot from your neighbor's house; lest he be weary of you, and so hate you.

18. A man that bears false witness against his neighbor is a club, and a sword, and a sharp arrow.

19. Confidence in an unfaithful man in time of trouble is like a broken tooth, and a foot out of joint.

20. As he that takes away a garment in cold weather, and as vinegar upon soda, so is he that sings songs to a heavy heart.

21. If your enemy is hungry, give him bread to eat; and if he is thirsty, give him water to drink:

22. For you shall heap coals of fire upon his head, and the LORD shall reward you.

23. The north wind brings forth rain: so does a backbiting tongue an angry countenance.

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

25. As cold water is to a thirsty soul, so is good news from a far country.
