16 Honey thou hast found—eat thy sufficiency, Lest thou be satiated 'with' it, and hast vomited it.
17 Withdraw thy foot from thy neighbour's house, Lest he be satiated 'with' thee, and have hated thee.
(Read Proverbs 25:16)
God has given us leave to use grateful things, but we are cautioned against excess.
(Read Proverbs 25:17)
We cannot be upon good terms with our neighbours, without discretion as well as sincerity. How much better a Friend is God than any other friend! The oftener we come to him, the more welcome.
