Proverbs 25:26-28

Authorized (King James) Version

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 for men to search 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.
