²¹If your enemies are hungry, give them bread to eat;
and if they are thirsty, give them water to drink;
²²for you will heap coals of fire on their heads,
and the Lord will reward you.
²³The north wind produces rain,
and a backbiting tongue, angry looks.
²⁴It is better to live in a corner of the housetop
than in a house shared with a contentious wife.
²⁵Like cold water to a thirsty soul,
so is good news from a far country.
²⁶Like a muddied spring or a polluted fountain
are the righteous who give way before the wicked.
²⁷It is not good to eat much honey,
or to seek honor on top of honor.
²⁸Like a city breached, without walls,
is one who lacks self-control.
