Proverbs 25:11-13

American Standard Version

¹¹ A word ^[a]fitly spoken
Is like apples of gold in network of silver.
¹² As ^[b]an ear-ring of gold, and an ornament of fine gold,
So is a wise reprover upon an obedient ear.
¹³ As the cold of snow in the time of harvest,
So is a faithful messenger to them that send him;
For he refresheth the soul of his masters.
