Proverbs 27:14
Compare all
12 A prudent man foresees evil and hides himself;
The simple pass on and are apunished. 
13 Take the garment of him who is surety for a stranger,
And hold it in pledge when he is surety for a seductress.
14 He who blesses his friend with a loud voice, rising early in the morning,
It will be counted a curse to him.
15 A acontinual dripping on a very rainy day
And a contentious woman are alike; 
16 Whoever1 restrains her restrains the wind,
And grasps oil with his right hand.

Proverbs 27:14

The picture of the ostentatious flatterer going at daybreak to pour out blessings on his patron. For any good that he does, for any thanks he gets, he might as well utter curses.
