Rage is cruel and anger a flood, but who can stand before jealousy?
In context
2Let a stranger praise you, and not your own mouth; a foreigner, and not your own lips. 3A stone is heavy and sand is a weight, but provocation from the senseless is heavier than both. 4Rage is cruel and anger a flood, but who can stand before jealousy? 5Better an open reproof than love kept hidden. 6The wounds of a friend are faithful, but the kisses of an enemy are lavish.
