Proverbs 25:15-17

Evangelical Heritage Version

¹⁵ By patience a ruler can be persuaded,
and a soft tongue can break a bone.
¹⁶ When you find honey, eat only what you need.
Otherwise you will be filled with it and vomit it up.
¹⁷ Do not set foot in your neighbor’s house too often.
If you do, he will have too much of you and hate you.
