Text -- Proverbs 25:18-28 (NET)
Strongs On/Off
Context
25:18 Like a club or a sword or a sharp arrow , so is the one who testifies against his neighbor as a false witness .
25:19 Like a bad tooth or a foot out of joint , so is confidence in an unfaithful person at the time of trouble .
25:20 Like one who takes off a garment on a cold day , or like vinegar poured on soda , so is one who sings songs to a heavy heart .
25:21 If your enemy is hungry , give him food to eat , and if he is thirsty , give him water to drink ,
25:22 for you will heap coals of fire on his head , and the Lord will reward you.
25:23 The north wind brings forth rain , and a gossiping tongue brings forth an angry look .
25:24 It is better to live on a corner of the housetop than in a house in company with a quarrelsome wife .
25:25 Like cold water to a weary person , so is good news from a distant land .
25:26 Like a muddied spring and a polluted well , so is a righteous person who gives way before the wicked .
25:27 It is not good to eat too much honey , nor is it honorable for people to seek their own glory .
25:28 Like a city that is broken down and without a wall , so is a person who cannot control his temper .
