Proverbs 27:1-6 ▼

1 Do not boast about tomorrow, for you do not know what any day may bring forth.

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

3 Stone is heavy, and sand a burden, but a fool’s provocation is heavier than both.

4 Anger is cruel, and wrath overwhelming, but before jealousy who can stand?

5 Better is an open rebuke than a love that remains hidden.

6 Trustworthy are the blows of a friend, dangerous, the kisses of an enemy.
