Proverbs 25:15

11 A word fitly spoken is like apples of gold in settings of silver.

12 Like an earring of gold or an ornament of fine gold is a wise man’s rebuke to a listening ear.

13 Like the cold of snow in the time of harvest is a trustworthy messenger to those who send him; he refreshes the soul of his masters.

14 Like clouds and wind without rain is the man who boasts of gifts never given.

15 Through patience a ruler can be persuaded, and a gentle tongue can break a bone.

16 If you find honey, eat just what you need, lest you have too much and vomit it up.

17 Seldom set foot in your neighbor’s house, lest he grow weary and hate you.

18 Like a club or sword or sharp arrow is a man who bears false witness against his neighbor.

19 Like a broken tooth or a foot out of joint is confidence in a faithless man in time of trouble.
