Proverbs 27:1-6 ▼

1 Don’t boast about tomorrow; for you don’t know what a day may bring.

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

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

4 Wrath is cruel, and anger is overwhelming; but who is able to stand before jealousy?

5 Better is open rebuke than hidden love.

6 The wounds of a friend are faithful, although the kisses of an enemy are profuse.
