Proverbs 25:15-17

International Children’s Bible

¹⁵ With patience you can convince a ruler.
    And a gentle word can get through to the hard-headed.

¹⁶ If you find honey, don’t eat too much.
    Too much of it will make you sick.
¹⁷ Don’t go to your neighbor’s house too often.
    Too much of you will make him hate you.
