Proverbs 27:11-16

¹¹My son, be wise, and make my heart glad, That I may answer him that reproacheth me.

¹²A prudent man seeth the evil, and hideth himself; But the simple pass on, and suffer for it.

¹³Take his garment that is surety for a stranger; And hold him in pledge that is surety for a foreign woman.

¹⁴He that blesseth his friend with a loud voice, rising early in the morning, It shall be counted a curse to him.

¹⁵A continual dropping in a very rainy day And a contentious woman are alike:

¹⁶He that would restrain her restraineth the wind; And his right hand encountereth oil.
