Proverbs 27:5-7

5 Better is (A)open rebuke
Than love that is concealed.
6 Faithful are the (B)wounds of a friend,
But [a]deceitful are the (C)kisses of an enemy.
7 A sated [b]man [c]loathes honey,
But to a famished [d]man any bitter thing is sweet.

New International Version
5 Better is open rebuke
than hidden love.
6 Wounds from a friend can be trusted,
but an enemy multiplies kisses.(A)

but to the hungry even what is bitter tastes sweet.
