Proverbs 25:26

24 Better to live on a corner of the roof than to share a house with a quarrelsome wife.

25 Like cold water to a weary soul is good news from a distant land.

Like a muddied spring or a polluted well is a righteous man who gives way to the wicked.

27 It is not good to eat too much honey or to search out one’s own glory.

28 Like a city whose walls are broken down is a man who does not control his temper.
