Proverbs 25:26-28

International Standard Version

²⁶ A muddied spring or a polluted well—
    that’s what a righteous person is
        who compromises with the wicked.

²⁷ To eat too much honey isn’t good;
    and neither is it honorable to seek one’s own glory.

²⁸ Like a city with breached walls
    is a man without self-control.
