4 verses in the King James Version. Word study for “praise” →
Let another man praise thee, and not thine own mouth; a stranger, and not thine own lips.
As the fining pot for silver, and the furnace for gold; so is a man to his praise.
They that forsake the law praise the wicked: but such as keep the law contend with them.
Give her of the fruit of her hands; and let her own works praise her in the gates.
