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.

CHAPTER 26.
