Proverbs 25:25-27

Living Bible

²⁵ Good news from far away is like cold water to the thirsty.

²⁶ If a godly man compromises with the wicked, it is like polluting a fountain or muddying a spring.

²⁷ Just as it is harmful to eat too much honey, so also it is bad for men to think about all the honors they deserve!
