Proverbs 27:1-6 ▼

1 Boast not thyself of to-morrow, For thou knowest not what a day bringeth forth.

2 Let another praise thee, and not thine own mouth, A stranger, and not thine own lips.

3 A stone is heavy, and the sand is heavy, And the anger of a fool Is heavier than they both.

4 Fury is fierce, and anger is overflowing, And who standeth before jealousy?

5 Better is open reproof than hidden love.

6 Faithful are the wounds of a lover, And abundant the kisses of an enemy.
