Proverbs 25:14-16

¹⁴As clouds and wind without rain, so is one who takes credit for an offering he has not given.

¹⁵A judge is moved by one who for a long time undergoes wrongs without protest, and by a soft tongue even bone is broken.

¹⁶If you have honey, take only as much as is enough for you; for fear that, being full of it, you may not be able to keep it down.
