Proverbs 25:22-28 God's Word Translation (GW)

22. ⌊In this way⌋ you will make him feel guilty and ashamed,and the Lord will reward you.

23. ⌊As⌋ the north wind brings rain,so a whispering tongue brings angry looks.

24. Better to live on a corner of a roofthan to share a home with a quarreling woman.

25. ⌊Like⌋ cold water to a thirsty soul,so is good news from far away.

26. ⌊Like⌋ a muddied spring and a polluted well,⌊so⌋ is a righteous person who gives in to a wicked person.

27. Eating too much honey is not good,and searching for honor is not honorable.

28. ⌊Like⌋ a city broken into ⌊and⌋ left without a wall,⌊so⌋ is a person who lacks self-control.
