Proverbs 27:5-7
Legacy Standard Bible
5 Better is reproof that is (A)revealed
Than love that is hidden.
6 Faithful are the (B)wounds of a friend,
But [a]deceitful are the (C)kisses of an enemy.
7 A satisfied soul tramples the honeycomb,
But to a hungry soul any bitter thing is sweet.

but to the hungry even what is bitter tastes sweet.
