Proverbs 27:1-6 ▼

1 Do not boast about tomorrow, || For you do not know what a day brings forth.

2 Let another praise you, and not your own mouth, || A stranger, and not your own lips.

3 A stone [is] heavy, and the sand [is] heavy, || And the anger of a fool || Is heavier than them both.

4 Fury [is] fierce, and anger [is] overflowing, || And who stands before jealousy?

5 Better [is] open reproof than hidden love.

6 The wounds of a lover are faithful, || And the kisses of an enemy [are] abundant.
