Proverbs 25:11

In context

9Argue your own case with your neighbor, but do not give away another man’s secret, 10or whoever hears it will shame you, and the bad report about you will never go away. 11Apples of gold in settings of silver—that is a word spoken at the right turn. 12A gold ring, an ornament of fine gold—that is a wise reprover to a listening ear. 13Like the cold of snow at harvest time is a faithful messenger to those who send him; he brings his master’s spirit back to life.
