Proverbs 25:25

Berean Standard Bible (BSB)

Like cold water to a weary soul is good news from a distant land.

In context

23 As the north wind brings forth rain, so a backbiting tongue brings angry looks.

24 Better to live on a corner of the roof than to share a house with a quarrelsome wife.

25 Like cold water to a weary soul is good news from a distant land.

26 Like a muddied spring or a polluted well is a righteous man who gives way to the wicked.

27 It is not good to eat too much honey or to search out one’s own glory.
