Proverbs 25:21-26 Common English Bible (CEB)

21. If your enemies are starving, feed them some bread;if they are thirsty, give them water to drink.

22. By doing this, you will heap burning coals on their heads,and the Lord will reward you.

23. The north wind stirs up rain,and a person who plots quietly provokes angry faces.

24. Better to live on the edge of a roofthan to share a house with a contentious woman.

25. Good news from a distant landis like cold water for a weary person.

26. A righteous person giving in to the wickedis like a contaminated spring or a polluted fountain.
