Proverbs 25:19-21
Revised Standard Version
19 Trust in a faithless man in time of trouble
is like a bad tooth or a foot that slips.
20 He who sings songs to a heavy heart
is like one who takes off a garment on a cold day,
and like vinegar on a wound.[a]
21 If your enemy is hungry, give him bread to eat;
and if he is thirsty, give him water to drink;
