Proverbs 25:14-16

21st Century King James Version

¹⁴ Whoso boasteth himself of his gifts falsely is like clouds and wind without rain.

¹⁵ By much forbearance is a prince persuaded, and a soft tongue breaketh the bone.

¹⁶ Hast thou found honey? Eat only so much as is sufficient for thee, lest thou be filled therewith and vomit it.
