20:025:015 By long forbearing is a prince persuaded, and a soft tongue
breaketh the bone.
20:025:016 Hast thou found honey? eat so much as is sufficient for thee,
lest thou be filled therewith, and vomit it.
20:025:017 Withdraw thy foot from thy neighbour's house; lest he be weary
of thee, and so hate thee.
20:025:018 A man that beareth false witness against his neighbour is a
maul, and a sword, and a sharp arrow.
20:025:019 Confidence in an unfaithful man in time of trouble is like a
broken tooth, and a foot out of joint.
20:025:020 As he that taketh away a garment in cold weather, and as vinegar upon nitre, so is he that singeth songs to an heavy heart.
20:025:021 If thine enemy be hungry, give him bread to eat; and if he be
thirsty, give him water to drink:
20:025:022 For thou shalt heap coals of fire upon his head, and the LORD
shall reward thee.
20:025:023 The north wind driveth away rain: so doth an angry countenance
a backbiting tongue.
20:025:024 It is better to dwell in the corner of the housetop, than with
a brawling woman and in a wide house.
