Proverbs 25:11
Compare all
9 aDebate your case with your neighbor,
And do not disclose the secret to another; 
10 Lest he who hears it expose your shame,
And1 your reputation be ruined. 
11 A word fitly aspoken is like apples of gold
In settings of silver. 
12 Like an earring of gold and an ornament of fine gold
Is a wise rebuker to an obedient ear.
13 aLike the cold of snow in time of harvest
Is a faithful messenger to those who send him,
For he refreshes the soul of his masters. 
14 aWhoever falsely boasts of giving
Is like bclouds and wind without rain. 
15 aBy long forbearance a ruler is persuaded,
And a gentle tongue breaks a bone.
