Young's Literal Translation
Previous Chapter Previous Verse Full Chapter Next Verse Next Chapter
4 Fury [is] fierce, and anger [is] overflowing, And who standeth before jealousy?
5 Better [is] open reproof than hidden love.
6 Faithful are the wounds of a lover, And abundant the kisses of an enemy.
7 A satiated soul treadeth down a honeycomb, And [to] a hungry soul every bitter thing [is] sweet.
8 As a bird wandering from her nest, So [is] a man wandering from his place.
9 Ointment and perfume rejoice the heart, And the sweetness of one`s friend -- from counsel of the soul.
10 Thine own friend, and the friend of thy father, forsake not, And the house of thy brother enter not In a day of thy calamity, Better [is] a near neighbour than a brother afar off.
