Proverbs 25:14
King James Version (1769) with Strongs Numbers and Morphology
These are also proverbs of Solomon, which the men of Hezekiah king of Judah copied out. |
||
The heaven for height, and the earth for depth, and the heart of kings is unsearchable. |
||
Take away the wicked from before the king, and his throne shall be established in righteousness. |
||
For better it is that it be said unto thee, Come up hither; than that thou shouldest be put lower in the presence of the prince whom thine eyes have seen. |
||
Debate thy cause with thy neighbour himself; and discover not a secret to another: |
||
A word fitly spoken is like apples of gold in pictures of silver. |
||
As the cold of snow in the time of harvest, so is a faithful messenger to them that send him: for he refresheth the soul of his masters. |
||
By long forbearing is a prince persuaded, and a soft tongue breaketh the bone. |
||
Withdraw thy foot from thy neighbour’s house; lest he be weary of thee, and so hate thee. |
||
Confidence in an unfaithful man in time of trouble is like a broken tooth, and a foot out of joint. |
||
If thine enemy be hungry, give him bread to eat; and if he be thirsty, give him water to drink: |
||
The north wind driveth away rain: so doth an angry countenance a backbiting tongue. |
||
As cold waters to a thirsty soul, so is good news from a far country. |
||
It is not good to eat much honey: so for men to search their own glory is not glory. |
