Proverbs 27:1-6 ▼

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

2 Let another praise you, and not your own mouth; someone else, and not your own lips.

3 A stone is heavy and sand is weighty, but vexation by a fool is more burdensome than the two of them.

4 Wrath is cruel and anger is overwhelming, but who can stand before jealousy?

5 Better is open rebuke than hidden love.

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