Proverbs 25:25-27
New American Standard Bible
Chapter 25
25
Like
cold water to a weary soul,
So is good news from a distant land.
26
Like
a trampled spring and a polluted well,
So
is a righteous person who gives way before the wicked.
27
It is not good to eat much honey,
Nor is it glory to search out one’s own glory.
King James Version
Chapter 25
25
As cold waters to a thirsty soul, so is good news from a far country.
26
A righteous man falling down before the wicked is as a troubled fountain, and a corrupt spring.
27
It is not good to eat much honey: so for men to search their own glory is not glory.
Christian Standard Bible
Chapter 25
25
Good news from a distant land
is like cold water to a parched throat.
26
A righteous person who yields to the wicked
is like a muddied spring or a polluted well.
27
It is not good to eat too much honey
or to seek glory after glory.
New Living Translation
Chapter 25
25
Good news from far away
is like cold water to the thirsty.
26
If the godly give in to the wicked,
it’s like polluting a fountain or muddying a spring.
27
It’s not good to eat too much honey,
and it’s not good to seek honors for yourself.
English Standard Version
Chapter 25
25
Like cold water to a thirsty soul,
so is good news from a far country.
26
Like a muddied spring or a polluted fountain
is a righteous man who gives way before the wicked.
27
It is not good to eat much honey,
nor is it glorious to seek one 's own glory.
New International Version
Chapter 25
25
Like cold water to a weary soul
is good news from a distant land.
26
Like a muddied spring or a polluted well
are the righteous who give way to the wicked.
27
It is not good to eat too much honey,
nor is it honorable to search out matters that are too deep.
New King James Version
Chapter 25
25
As
cold water to a weary soul,
So
is
good news from a far country.
26
A righteous
man
who falters before the wicked
Is like
a murky spring and a polluted well.
27
It is
not good to eat much honey;
So to seek one’s own glory
is not
glory.
