Proverbs 27:14

Berean Standard Bible (BSB)

If one blesses his neighbor with a loud voice early in the morning, it will be counted to him as a curse.

In context

12 The prudent see danger and take cover; but the simple keep going and pay the penalty.

13 Take the garment of him who posts security for a stranger; get collateral if it is for a foreigner.

14 If one blesses his neighbor with a loud voice early in the morning, it will be counted to him as a curse.

15 A constant dripping on a rainy day and a contentious woman are alike—

16 restraining her is like holding back the wind or grasping oil with one’s right hand.
