Proverbs 27:1-6 ▼

1 Don’t boast about tomorrow, for you don’t know what a day might bring.

2 Let another praise you, and not your own mouth — a stranger, and not your own lips.

3 A stone is heavy, and sand a burden, but aggravation from a fool outweighs them both.

4 Fury is cruel, and anger a flood, but who can withstand jealousy?

5 Better an open reprimand than concealed love.

6 The wounds of a friend are trustworthy, but the kisses of an enemy are excessive.
