Proverbs 27:3


← Proverbs 27:2 Proverbs 27:3 (KJV) Proverbs 27:4 →
Let another man praise thee, and not thine own mouth; a stranger, and not thine own lips.
A stone is heavy, and the sand weighty; but a fool's wrath is heavier than them both.
Wrath is cruel, and anger is outrageous; but who is able to stand before envy?
