Hello Customer (name blocked for privacy),

This isn't actually in the bible. It's a proverb, but not from Proverbs in the bible. It comes from the play "The Mourning Bride" by William Congreve. Here's a link to that: http://www.bartleby.com/59/3/hellhathnofu.html

Here's another site that says it's from this same play. http://www.ojohaven.com/fun/misquotes.html

I hope you find this helpful and will accept my answer.
