Proverbs 25 (oops...switch with yesterdays proverb!)

2: God has glory in what he conceals, kings have glory in what they fathom.

3: As the heavens in height, and the earth in depth, the heart of kings is unfathomable.

4: Remove the dross from silver, and it comes forth perfectly purified;

5: Remove the wicked from the presence of the king, and his throne is made firm through righteousness.

6: Claim no honor in the king's presence, nor occupy the place of great men;

7: For it is better that you be told, "Come up closer!" than that you be humbled before the prince.

11:Like golden apples in silver settings are words spoken at the proper time.

12: Like a golden earing, or a necklace of fine gold, is a wise reprover  to an obedient ear.

13:Like the coolness of snow in the heart of the harvest is a faithful messenger for the one who sends him. (He refreshes the soul of his master.)

15: By patience is a ruler persuaded, and a soft tongue will break a bone.

17: Let your foot be seldom in your neighbor's house, lest he have more than enough of you and hate you.

18: Like a club, or a sword, or a sharp arrow, is the man who bears false witness against his neighbor.

19: Like an infected tooth or an unsteady foot is dependence on a faithless man in time of trouble.

20: Like a moth in clothing, or a maggot in wood, sorrow gnaws at the human heart.

21: If your enemy be hungry, give him food to eat, if he be thirsty, give him to drink.

22: For live coals will you heap on his head, and the Lord will vindicate you.

24: It is better to dwell in a corner of the housetop than in a roomy house with a quarrelsome woman.

27: To eat too much honey is not good; nor to seek honor after honor.

28: Like an open city with no defenses is the man with no check on his feelings.
