Proverbs 25:26-28
Legacy Standard Bible
26 Like a (A)muddied spring and a corrupted well
Is a righteous man shaking before the wicked.
27 To eat too much honey is not good,
Nor is it glory to (B)search out [a]one’s own glory.
28 Like a (C)city that is broken into and without a wall
Is a man (D)without restraint over his spirit.
