Proverbs 27:7-12

⁷The full soul trampleth on a honeycomb; but to the hungry soul every bitter thing is sweet.

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

⁹Ointment and perfume rejoice the heart; and the sweetness of one's friend is the fruit of hearty counsel.

¹⁰Thine own friend, and thy father's friend, forsake not; and go not into thy brother's house in the day of thy calamity: better is a neighbour that is near than a brother far off.

¹¹Be wise, my son, and make my heart glad, that I may have wherewith to answer him that reproacheth me.

¹²A prudent man seeth the evil, and hideth himself; the simple pass on, and are punished.
