Proverbs 27:14-20

¹⁴He who blesseth his neighbor with a loud voice, rising early for it, It shall be accounted to him as a curse.

¹⁵A continual dropping in a very rainy day And a quarrelsome wife are alike.

¹⁶He who restraineth her restraineth the wind; And his right hand layeth hold of oil.

¹⁷Iron sharpeneth iron; So one man sharpeneth the face of another.

¹⁸He that watcheth the fig-tree shall eat its fruit; So he that is careful for his master shall come to honor.

¹⁹As in water face answereth to face, So doth the heart of man to man.

²⁰The realms of the dead are never full; So the eyes of man are never satisfied.
