Conduct and Consequence

Proverbs 25:23-28

The north wind driveth away rain, as doth a sad countenance a backbiting tongue.

It is better to sit in a corner of the housetop: than with a brawling woman, and in a common house.

As cold water to a thirsty soul, so are good tidings from a far country.

A just man falling down before the wicked, is as a fountain troubled with the foot and a corrupted spring.

As it is not good for a man to eat much honey, so he that is a searcher of majesty shall be overwhelmed by glory.

As a city that lieth open and is not compassed with walls, so is a man that cannot refrain his own spirit in speaking.
