Proverbs 25:15-17

GOD’S WORD Translation

¹⁵ With patience you can persuade a ruler,
and a soft tongue can break bones.
¹⁶ When you find honey, eat only as much as you need.
Otherwise, you will have too much and vomit.
¹⁷ Do not set foot in your neighbor’s house too often.
Otherwise, he will see too much of you and hate you.
