Proverbs 25:17-19

Living Bible

¹⁷ Don’t visit your neighbor too often, or you will outwear your welcome!

¹⁸ Telling lies about someone is as harmful as hitting him with an ax, or wounding him with a sword, or shooting him with a sharp arrow.

¹⁹ Putting confidence in an unreliable man is like chewing with a sore tooth, or trying to run on a broken foot.
