Proverbs 25:14-18 New American Standard Bible (NASB)

14. Like clouds and wind without rain Is a man who boasts of his gifts falsely.

15. By forbearance a ruler may be persuaded, And a soft tongue breaks the bone.

16. Have you found honey? Eat only what you need, That you not have it in excess and vomit it.

17. Let your foot rarely be in your neighbor's house, Or he will become weary of you and hate you.

18. Like a club and a sword and a sharp arrow Is a man who bears false witness against his neighbor.
