Proverbs 25:14-18
New American Standard Bible
Chapter 25
14
Like
clouds and wind without rain
Is a person who boasts of his gifts falsely.
15
Through patience a ruler may be persuaded,
And a gentle tongue breaks bone.
16
Have you found honey? Eat
only
what you need,
So that you do not have it in excess and vomit it.
17
Let your foot rarely be in your neighbor’s house,
Or he will become weary of you and hate you.
18
Like
a club, a sword, and a sharp arrow
Is a person who gives false testimony against his neighbor.
King James Version
Chapter 25
14
Whoso boasteth himself of a false gift is like clouds and wind without rain.
15
By long forbearing is a prince persuaded, and a soft tongue breaketh the bone.
16
Hast thou found honey? eat so much as is sufficient for thee, lest thou be filled therewith, and vomit it.
17
Withdraw thy foot from thy neighbour's house; lest he be weary of thee, and so hate thee.
18
A man that beareth false witness against his neighbour is a maul, and a sword, and a sharp arrow.
Christian Standard Bible
Chapter 25
14
The one who boasts about a gift that does not exist
is like clouds and wind without rain.
15
A ruler can be persuaded through patience,
and a gentle tongue can break a bone.
16
If you find honey, eat only what you need;
otherwise, you’ll get sick from it and vomit.
17
Seldom set foot in your neighbor’s house;
otherwise, he’ll get sick of you and hate you.
18
A person giving false testimony against his neighbor
is like a club, a sword, or a sharp arrow.
New Living Translation
Chapter 25
14
A person who promises a gift but doesn’t give it
is like clouds and wind that bring no rain.
15
Patience can persuade a prince,
and soft speech can break bones.
16
Do you like honey?
Don’t eat too much, or it will make you sick!
17
Don’t visit your neighbors too often,
or you will wear out your welcome.
18
Telling lies about others
is as harmful as hitting them with an ax,
wounding them with a sword,
or shooting them with a sharp arrow.
English Standard Version
Chapter 25
14
Like clouds and wind without rain
is a man who boasts of a gift he does not give.
15
With patience a ruler may be persuaded,
and a soft tongue will break a bone.
16
If you have found honey, eat only enough for you,
lest you have your fill of it and vomit it.
17
Let your foot be seldom in your neighbor 's house,
lest he have his fill of you and hate you.
18
A man who bears false witness against his neighbor
is like a war club, or a sword, or a sharp arrow.
New International Version
Chapter 25
14
Like clouds and wind without rain
is one who boasts of gifts never given.
15
Through patience a ruler can be persuaded,
and a gentle tongue can break a bone.
16
If you find honey, eat just enough—
too much of it, and you will vomit.
17
Seldom set foot in your neighbor’s house—
too much of you, and they will hate you.
18
Like a club or a sword or a sharp arrow
is one who gives false testimony against a neighbor.
New King James Version
Chapter 25
14
Whoever falsely boasts of giving
Is like
clouds and wind without rain.
15
By long forbearance a ruler is persuaded,
And a gentle tongue breaks a bone.
16
Have you found honey?
Eat only as much as you need,
Lest you be filled with it and vomit.
17
Seldom set foot in your neighbor’s house,
Lest he become weary of you and hate you.
18
A man who bears false witness against his neighbor
Is like
a club, a sword, and a sharp arrow.
