Proverbs 25:25-27
Good News Translation

25 Finally hearing good news from a distant land is like a drink of cold water when you are dry and thirsty.

26 A good person who gives in to someone who is evil reminds you of a polluted spring or a poisoned well.

27 Too much honey is bad for you, and so is trying to win too much praise.[a]
