Proverbs 25:15-19

Through patience a ruler may be persuaded, And a gentle tongue breaks bone.

Have you found honey? Eat only what you need, So that you do not have it in excess and vomit it.

Let your foot rarely be in your neighbor’s house, Or he will become weary of you and hate you.

Like a club, a sword, and a sharp arrow Is a person who gives false testimony against his neighbor.

Like a bad tooth and an unsteady foot Is confidence in a treacherous person in time of trouble.
