19. Confidence in an unfaithful man in time of troubleis like a broken tooth and a foot out of joint.
20. As he who takes away a garment in cold weather,and as vinegar on soda,so is he who sings songs to a heavy heart.
21. If your enemy is hungry, give him bread to eat;and if he is thirsty, give him water to drink;
22. for you will heap coals of fire upon his head,and the Lord will reward you.
23. The north wind brings rain,and a backbiting tongue an angry countenance.
24. It is better to dwell in the corner of the housetopthan with a brawling woman in a wide house.
25. As cold waters to a thirsty soul,so is good news from a far country.
26. A righteous man falling down before the wickedis as a troubled fountain and a corrupt spring.
27. It is not good to eat much honey;so for men to search their own glory is not glory.
