20:026:027 Whoso diggeth a pit shall fall therein:  and he that rolleth a
           stone, it will return upon him.

20:026:028 A lying tongue hateth those that are afflicted by it; and a
           flattering mouth worketh ruin.

20:027:001 Boast not thyself of to morrow; for thou knowest not what a
           day may bring forth.

20:027:002 Let another man praise thee, and not thine own mouth; a
           stranger, and not thine own lips.

20:027:003 A stone is heavy, and the sand weighty; but a fool’s wrath is
           heavier than them both.

20:027:004 Wrath is cruel, and anger is outrageous; but who is able to
           stand before envy?

20:027:005 Open rebuke is better than secret love.

20:027:006 Faithful are the wounds of a friend; but the kisses of an
           enemy are deceitful.

20:027:007 The full soul loatheth an honeycomb; but to the hungry soul
           every bitter thing is sweet.

20:027:008 As a bird that wandereth from her nest, so is a man that
           wandereth from his place.

20:027:009 Ointment and perfume rejoice the heart:  so doth the sweetness
           of a man’s friend by hearty counsel.

20:027:010 Thine own friend, and thy father’s friend, forsake not;
           neither go into thy brother’s house in the day of thy
           calamity:  for better is a neighbour that is near than a
           brother far off.

20:027:011 My son, be wise, and make my heart glad, that I may answer him
           that reproacheth me.

20:027:012 A prudent man foreseeth the evil, and hideth himself; but the
           simple pass on, and are punished.

20:027:013 Take his garment that is surety for a stranger, and take a
           pledge of him for a strange woman.

20:027:014 He that blesseth his friend with a loud voice, rising early in
           the morning, it shall be counted a curse to him.

20:027:015 A continual dropping in a very rainy day and a contentious
           woman are alike.

20:027:016 Whosoever hideth her hideth the wind, and the ointment of his
           right hand, which bewrayeth itself.

20:027:017 Iron sharpeneth iron; so a man sharpeneth the countenance of
           his friend.

20:027:018 Whoso keepeth the fig tree shall eat the fruit thereof:  so he
           that waiteth on his master shall be honoured.

20:027:019 As in water face answereth to face, so the heart of man to
           man.

20:027:020 Hell and destruction are never full; so the eyes of man are
           never satisfied.

20:027:021 As the fining pot for silver, and the furnace for gold; so is
           a man to his praise.

20:027:022 Though thou shouldest bray a fool in a mortar among wheat with
           a pestle, yet will not his foolishness depart from him.
