Proverbs 27:2-4
New Revised Standard Version Updated Edition
2 Let another praise you and not your own mouth,
a stranger and not your own lips.(A)
3 A stone is heavy, and sand is weighty,
but a fool’s provocation is heavier than both.(B)
4 Wrath is cruel, anger is overwhelming,
but who is able to stand before jealousy?
