Proverbs 25:21-28

21 If thine enemy be hungry, give him bread to eat; and if he be thirsty, give him water to drink;
22 for thou shalt heap coals of fire upon his head, and the LORD shall reward thee.
23 The north wind driveth away rain; so doth an angry countenance a backbiting tongue.
24 It is better to dwell in the corner of the housetop, than with a brawling woman in a large house.
25 As cold waters to a thirsty soul, so is good news from a far country.
26 A righteous man falling down before the wicked is as a troubled fountain and a corrupt spring.
27 It is not good to eat much honey; so also for men to search after their own glory is not glory.
28 He that hath no rule over his own spirit is like a city that is broken down and without walls.
