Proverbs 27:3 (WEB)
Context Reading
1Don’t boast about tomorrow;for you don’t know what a day may bring. 2Let another man praise you,and not your own mouth;a stranger, and not your own lips. 3A stone is heavy,and sand is a burden;but a fool’s provocation is heavier than both. 4Wrath is cruel,and anger is overwhelming;but who is able to stand before jealousy? 5Better is open rebukethan hidden love.
