Proverbs 27 (kjv)

Boast^H1984 not thyself of to morrow^H4279; for thou knowest^H3045 not what a day^H3117 may bring forth^H3205.²Let another man^H2114 praise^H1984 thee, and not thine own mouth^H6310; a stranger^H5237, and not thine own lips^H8193.³A stone^H68 is heavy^H3514, and the sand^H2344 weighty^H5192; but a fool's^H191 wrath^H3708 is heavier^H3515 than them both^H8147.⁴Wrath^H2534 is cruel^H395, and anger^H639 is outrageous^H7858; but who is able to stand^H5975 before^H6440 envy^H7068?

⁵Open^H1540 rebuke^H8433 is better^H2896 than secret^H5641 love^H160.⁶Faithful^H539 are the wounds^H6482 of a friend^H157; but the kisses^H5390 of an enemy^H8130 are deceitful^H6280.⁷The full^H7649 soul^H5315 loatheth^H947 an honeycomb^H5317; but to the hungry^H7457 soul^H5315 every bitter thing^H4751 is sweet^H4966.⁸As a bird^H6833 that wandereth^H5074 from her nest^H7064, so is a man^H376 that wandereth^H5074 from his place^H4725.⁹Ointment^H8081 and perfume^H7004 rejoice^H8055 the heart^H3820: so doth the sweetness^H4986 of a man's friend^H7453 by hearty^H5315 counsel^H6098.¹⁰Thine own friend^H7453, and thy father's^H1 friend^H7453, forsake^H5800 not; neither go^H935 into thy brother's^H251 house^H1004 in the day^H3117 of thy calamity^H343: for better^H2896 is aneighbour^H7934 that is near^H7138 than a brother^H251 far off^H7350.

¹¹My son^H1121, be wise^H2449, and make my heart^H3820 glad^H8055, that I may answer^{H7725 H1697} him that reproacheth^H2778 me.¹²A prudent^H6175 man foreseeth^H7200 the evil^H7451, and hideth^H5641 himself; but the simple^H6612 pass on^H5674, and are punished^H6064.¹³Take^H3947 his garment^H899 that is surety^H6148 for a stranger^H2114, and take a pledge^H2254 of him for a strange woman^H5237.¹⁴He that blesseth^H1288 his friend^H7453 with a loud^H1419 voice^H6963, rising early^H7925 in the morning^H1242, it shall be counted^H2803 a curse^H7045 to him.¹⁵A continual^H2956 dropping^H1812 in a very rainy^H5464 day^H3117 and a contentious^{H4079 H4066} woman^H802 are alike^H7737.¹⁶Whosoever hideth^H6845 her hideth^H6845 the wind^H7307, and the ointment^H8081 of his right hand^H3225, which bewrayeth^H7121 itself.¹⁷Iron^H1270 sharpeneth^H2300 iron^H1270; so a man^H376 sharpeneth^H2300 the countenance^H6440 of his friend^H7453.¹⁸Whoso keepeth^H5341 the fig tree^H8384 shall eat^H398 the fruit^H6529 thereof: so he that waiteth^H8104 on his master^H113 shall be honoured^H3513.¹⁹As in water^H4325 face^H6440 answereth to face^H6440, so the heart^H3820 of man^H120 to man^H120.²⁰Hell^H7585 and destruction^{H11 H10} are never^H3808 full^H7646; so the eyes^H5869 of man^H120 are never satisfied^H7646.²¹As the fining pot^H4715 for silver^H3701, and the furnace^H3564 for gold^H2091; so is a man^H376 to^H6310 his praise^H4110.²²Though thou shouldest bray^H3806 a fool^H191 in a mortar^H4388 among^H8432 wheat^H7383 with a pestle^H5940, yet will not his foolishness^H200 depart^H5493 from him.

²³Be thou diligent^H3045 to know^H3045 the state^H6440 of thy flocks^H6629, and look^H7896 well^H3820 to thy herds^H5739.²⁴For riches^H2633 are not for ever^H5769: and doth the crown^H5145 endure to every^H1755 generation^H1755?²⁵The hay^H2682 appeareth^H1540, and the tender grass^H1877 sheweth^H7200 itself, and herbs^H6212 of the mountains^H2022 are gathered^H622.²⁶The lambs^H3532 are for thy clothing^H3830, and the goats^H6260 are the price^H4242 of the field^H7704.²⁷And thou shalt have goats^H5795' milk^H2461 enough^H1767 for thy food^H3899, for the food^H3899 of thy household^H1004, and for the maintenance^H2416 for thy maidens^H5291.
