Proverbs [Sayings] 25:19-23

¹⁹Confidence in someone unfaithful in time of trouble is like a bad tooth, or a lame foot.

²⁰As one who takes away a garment in cold weather, or vinegar on soda, so is one who sings songs to a heavy heart.

²¹If your enemy is hungry, give him food to eat. If he is thirsty, give him water to drink:

²²for you will heap burning coals of shame on his head, and Adonai will reward you.

²³The north wind produces rain: so a backbiting tongue brings an angry face.
