Proverbs 27:7


Proverbs 27:6 Proverbs 27:7 (KJV) Proverbs 27:8
Faithful [are] the wounds of a friend; but the kisses of an enemy [are] deceitful.
The full soul loatheth an honeycomb; but to the hungry soul every bitter thing is sweet.
As a bird that wandereth from her nest, so [is] a man that wandereth from his place.
