שֵׁן רֹעָה וְרֶגֶל מוּעָדֶת מִבְטָח בּוֹגֵד בְּיוֹם צָרָֽה
Confidence in an unfaithful man in time of trouble Is like a broken tooth, and a foot out of joint.
מַעֲדֶה בֶּגֶד בְּיוֹם קָרָה חֹמֶץ עַל־נָתֶר וְשָׁר בַּשִּׁרִים עַל לֶב־רָֽע
As one that taketh off a garment in cold weather, and as vinegar upon nitre, So is he that singeth songs to a heavy heart.
אִם־רָעֵב שֹׂנַאֲךָ הַאֲכִלֵהוּ לָחֶם וְאִם־צָמֵא הַשְׁקֵהוּ מָֽיִם
If thine enemy be hungry, give him bread to eat, And if he be thirsty, give him water to drink;
כִּי גֶֽחָלִים אַתָּה חֹתֶה עַל־רֹאשׁוֹ וַֽיהוָה יְשַׁלֶּם־לָֽךְ
For thou wilt heap coals of fire upon his head, And the LORD will reward thee.
רוּחַ צָפוֹן תְּחוֹלֵֽל גָּשֶׁם וּפָנִים נִזְעָמִים לְשׁוֹן סָֽתֶר
The north wind bringeth forth rain, And a backbiting tongue an angry countenance.
