Proverbs 25:21-27

²¹If your enemies are hungry, give them something to eat; if they are thirsty, give them something to drink;

²²doing that will cause them to feel ashamed IDM, and Yahweh will reward you for doing that.

²³When wind blows from the right direction, it will rain; similarly SIM, if we gossip about others, that causes them to look at us very angrily.

²⁴It is better to live ◄ alone/by yourself► in the corner of an attic/housetop than to live inside the house with a wife who is always nagging.

²⁵Receiving good news from a country far away refreshes our spirits like SIM cold water refreshes us when we are very thirsty.

²⁶When a righteous/good person ◄gives in/yields► to wicked people, that is as bad as SIM a spring that becomes muddied or a fountain that becomes polluted.

²⁷It is not good to eat too much honey, and trying to get people to praise you is also not good.
