Proverbs 25
1These 1
2It is 2 but the glory of kings is to search out a matter. 1
3As 2 so the hearts of kings are unsearchable. 1
4Take 2 and material comes out for the refiner. 1
5Take 2 and his throne will be established in righteousness. 1
6Don’t exalt yourself in 2 or claim a place amongst great men; 1
7for 2 than that you should be put lower in the presence of the prince, 2 whom your eyes have seen. 1
8Don’t be 2 What will you do in the end when your neighbour shames you? 1
9Debate 2 and don’t betray the confidence of another, 2
10lest 2 and your bad reputation never depart. 1
11A 2 is like apples of gold in settings of silver. 1
12As 2 so is a wise reprover to an obedient ear. 1
13As 2 so is a faithful messenger to those who send him; 2 for he refreshes the soul of his masters. 1
14As 2 so is he who boasts of gifts deceptively. 1
15By patience a 2 A soft tongue breaks the bone. 1
16Have 2 Eat as much as is sufficient for you, 2 lest you eat too much, and vomit it. 1
17Let your 2 lest he be weary of you, and hate you. 1
18A 2 is like a club, a sword, or a sharp arrow. 1
19Confidence 2 is like a bad tooth or a lame foot. 1
20As 2 or vinegar on soda, 2 so is one who sings songs to a heavy heart. 1
21If your 2 If he is thirsty, give him water to drink; 1
22for 2 and the LORD will reward you. 1
23The 2 so a backbiting tongue brings an angry face. 1
24It 2 than to share a house with a contentious woman. 1
25Like 2 so is good news from a far country. 1
26Like 2 so is a righteous man who gives way before the wicked. 1
27It 2 nor is it honourable to seek one’s own honour. 1
28Like 2 is a man whose spirit is without restraint.
