'Bone' in the Bible

A virtuous woman is a crown to her husband, but a wife who puts him to shame is like bone cancer.

The light of the eyes rejoiceth the heart, A good report maketh fat the bone.

Sayings of pleasantness are a honeycomb, Sweet to the soul, and healing to the bone.

A rejoicing heart doth good to the body, And a smitten spirit drieth the bone.

By long forbearing is a prince persuaded, and a soft tongue breaketh the bone.
