Proverbs 25:12

10 lest the one who hears may disgrace you, and your infamy never go away.

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

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.
