Proverbs 25:16-18
Contemporary English Version
16 Eating too much honey
can make you sick.
17 Don't visit friends too often,
or they will get tired of it
and start hating you.
18 Telling lies about friends
is like attacking them
with clubs and swords
and sharp arrows.

Proverbs 25:16-18
New International Version
16 If you find honey, eat just enough—
too much of it, and you will vomit.(A)
17 Seldom set foot in your neighbor’s house—
too much of you, and they will hate you.
18 Like a club or a sword or a sharp arrow
is one who gives false testimony against a neighbor.(B)
