Proverbs 27:14

In context

12The shrewd man sees trouble and hides himself; the simple walk on and pay for it. 13Take the garment of one who puts up security for a stranger, and hold it in pledge for a foreign woman. 14Whoever blesses his neighbor in a loud voice, rising early in the morning—it will be counted a curse to him. 15A constant dripping on a day of steady rain and a quarrelsome wife are alike: 16restraining her is restraining the wind, or catching oil in your right hand.
