Proverbs 25:16-24
New American Standard Bible
Chapter 25
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.
19
Like
a bad tooth and an unsteady foot
Is confidence in a treacherous person in time of trouble.
20
Like
one who takes off a garment on a cold day,
or like
vinegar on soda,
Is one who sings songs to a troubled heart.
21
If your enemy is hungry, give him food to eat;
And if he is thirsty, give him water to drink;
22
For you will heap burning coals on his head,
And the
Lord
will reward you.
23
The north wind brings rain,
And a gossiping tongue
brings
an angry face.
24
It is better to live on a corner of the roof,
Than in a house shared with a contentious woman.
King James Version
Chapter 25
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.
19
Confidence in an unfaithful man in time of trouble is like a broken tooth, and a foot out of joint.
20
As he that taketh away a garment in cold weather, and as vinegar upon nitre, so is he that singeth songs to an heavy heart.
21
If thine enemy be hungry, give him bread to eat; and if he be thirsty, give him water to drink:
22
For thou shalt heap coals of fire upon his head, and the
Lord
shall reward thee.
23
The north wind driveth away rain: so doth an angry countenance a backbiting tongue.
24
It is better to dwell in the corner of the housetop, than with a brawling woman and in a wide house.
Christian Standard Bible
Chapter 25
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.
19
Trusting an unreliable person in a difficult time
is like a rotten tooth or a faltering foot.
20
Singing songs to a troubled heart
is like taking off clothing on a cold day
or like pouring vinegar on soda.
21
If your enemy is hungry, give him food to eat,
and if he is thirsty, give him water to drink;
22
for you will heap burning coals on his head,
and the
Lord
will reward you.
23
The north wind produces rain,
and a backbiting tongue, angry looks.
24
Better to live on the corner of a roof
than to share a house with a nagging wife.
New Living Translation
Chapter 25
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.
19
Putting confidence in an unreliable person in times of trouble
is like chewing with a broken tooth or walking on a lame foot.
20
Singing cheerful songs to a person with a heavy heart
is like taking someone’s coat in cold weather
or pouring vinegar in a wound.
21
If your enemies are hungry, give them food to eat.
If they are thirsty, give them water to drink.
22
You will heap burning coals of shame on their heads,
and the
Lord
will reward you.
23
As surely as a north wind brings rain,
so a gossiping tongue causes anger!
24
It’s better to live alone in the corner of an attic
than with a quarrelsome wife in a lovely home.
English Standard Version
Chapter 25
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.
19
Trusting in a treacherous man in time of trouble
is like a bad tooth or a foot that slips.
20
Whoever sings songs to a heavy heart
is like one who takes off a garment on a cold day,
and like vinegar on soda.
21
If your enemy is hungry, give him bread to eat,
and if he is thirsty, give him water to drink,
22
for you will heap burning coals on his head,
and the
Lord
will reward you.
23
The north wind brings forth rain,
and a backbiting tongue, angry looks.
24
It is better to live in a corner of the housetop
than in a house shared with a quarrelsome wife.
New International Version
Chapter 25
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.
19
Like a broken tooth or a lame foot
is reliance on the unfaithful in a time of trouble.
20
Like one who takes away a garment on a cold day,
or like vinegar poured on a wound,
is one who sings songs to a heavy heart.
21
If your enemy is hungry, give him food to eat;
if he is thirsty, give him water to drink.
22
In doing this, you will heap burning coals on his head,
and the
Lord
will reward you.
23
Like a north wind that brings unexpected rain
is a sly tongue—which provokes a horrified look.
24
Better to live on a corner of the roof
than share a house with a quarrelsome wife.
New King James Version
Chapter 25
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.
19
Confidence in an unfaithful
man
in time of trouble
Is like
a bad tooth and a foot out of joint.
20
Like
one who takes away a garment in cold weather,
And like
vinegar on soda,
Is
one who sings songs to a heavy heart.
21
If your enemy is hungry, give him bread to eat;
And if he is thirsty, give him water to drink;
22
For
so
you will heap coals of fire on his head,
And the
Lord
will reward you.
23
The north wind brings forth rain,
And a backbiting tongue an angry countenance.
24
It is
better to dwell in a corner of a housetop,
Than in a house shared with a contentious woman.
