Proverbs 27:1-9

¹Boast not thy selfe of to morowe: for thou knowest not what a day may bring forth.

²Let another man prayse thee, and not thine owne mouth: a stranger, and not thine owne lips.

³A stone is heauie, and the sand weightie: but a fooles wrath is heauier then them both.

⁴Anger is cruell, and wrath is raging: but who can stand before enuie?

⁵Open rebuke is better then secret loue.

⁶The wounds of a louer are faithful, and the kisses of an enemie are pleasant.

⁷The person that is full, despiseth an hony combe: but vnto the hungry soule euery bitter thing is sweete.

⁸As a bird that wandreth from her nest, so is a man that wandreth from his owne place.

⁹As oyntment and perfume reioyce the heart, so doeth the sweetenes of a mans friend by hearty counsell.
