PROVERB 27

Proverbs 27

General Counsel
 1  Never brag about the day to come, because you don’t know what it might bring. (  Never plan or promise without taking to mind that tomorrow is still not under your control even while you plan for it)

 2  Let someone else praise you, not your own mouth; a stranger, and never your own lips. ( Dont let you Ego do the praising instead Let your result speak for you. )

 3  Rocks are heavy, and sand is weighty, but a fool’s provocation outweighs them both. ( The weight of vanity needs are not light. They dull your senses)


 4  Wrath can be fierce and anger overwhelms but who can stand up to jealousy?( We can make case for  anger and our fierce emotions but jealousy emotion  can't  defended)

 5  An open rebuke is better than unspoken love.(  Saying exactly   what you think to others is better than masking it with pretence )

 6  Wounds from someone who loves are trustworthy, but kisses from an enemy speak volumes.

 10  Never abandon your friend nor your father’s friend, and don’t go to your brother’s house in times of trouble. A neighbor who is near is better than a brother who lives far away.

 14  A friend’s loud blessing early in the morning will be thought of as a curse.( It's not good to be praised when you have not started work)

 15  A continual dripping on a rainy day and a contentious wife are alike.( Becareful about how you deal with those who like making troubles from petty affairs. Their trouble might not end when we we think so)

 16  Trying to keep her in check is like stopping a wind storm or grabbing oil with your right hand. ( it's useless trying to control people if they love behaving in a particular way that irritates you)

 17  Iron sharpens iron; so a man sharpens a friend’s character.( Nothing that refines a man than following those who are better than him or can teach him)

 18  Whoever nurtures the fig tree will eat its fruit, and whoever obeys his master will be honored.( Your business will do well if you nurture it. When you humble yourself to learn from those better than you, you will get same honour )

 19  Just as water reflects the face, so the heart reflects the person. ( The way a person looks is the mirror of how they feel inside)

 20  Sheol and Abaddon are never satiated, and neither are human eyes.( Our eyes have a vacuum to see and imagine unlimtedly)

 21  As the crucible tests silver, and the furnace assays gold; so praise received tests a man. ( The real thing that make us valuable can be exposed with praise )

 24  because riches don’t endure forever, and crowns don’t last from one generation to the next.( As nothing stays thesame all the time even world powers loose their Authority from generation to generation )

 25  When the grass disappears, and new growth appears, the mountain spices will be harvested
26  the lambs will supply your clothing, and your goats the price of a field.
27  You will have enough goat’s milk to drink and to supply your household needs, as well as sustenance for your servant girls. ( Everthing works according to it time. Long term plan works if you allow the process and time to play their part)
