Proverbs 25:27 in the World English Bible
It is not good to eat much honey, nor is it honorable to seek one’s own honor.
Context
26 A righteous man falling down before the wicked is as a troubled fountain, and a corrupt spring.
27 It is not good to eat much honey: so for men to search their own glory is not glory.
28 He that hath no rule over his own spirit is like a city that is broken down, and without walls.
