Proverbs 27:12-14

Living Bible

¹² A sensible man watches for problems ahead and prepares to meet them. The simpleton never looks and suffers the consequences.

¹³ The world’s poorest credit risk is the man who agrees to pay a stranger’s debts.

¹⁴ If you shout a pleasant greeting to a friend too early in the morning, he will count it as a curse!
