Proverbs · chapter 27 · verse 14
He that blesseth his friend with a loud voice, rising early in the morning, it shall be counted a curse to him.Proverbs 27:14 · King James Version
Proverbs 27:14 in context
12A prudent man foreseeth the evil, and hideth himself; but the simple pass on, and are punished.
13Take his garment that is surety for a stranger, and take a pledge of him for a strange woman.
14He that blesseth his friend with a loud voice, rising early in the morning, it shall be counted a curse to him.
15A continual dropping in a very rainy day and a contentious woman are alike.
16Whosoever hideth her hideth the wind, and the ointment of his right hand, which bewrayeth itself.
