Proverbs 27:3 Context
1Boast not thy selfe of to morrow: for thou knowest not what a day may bring foorth. 2Let another man praise thee, and not thine owne mouth; a stranger, and not thine owne lips. 3A stone is heauie, and the sand weightie: but a fooles wrath is heauier then them both. 4Wrath is cruell, and anger is outragious: but who is able to stand before enuie? 5Open rebuke is better then secret loue.
