Proverbs 25:11-16

¹¹A word spoken in his place, is like apples of golde with pictures of siluer.

¹²He that reprooueth the wise, and the obedient eare, is as a golden earering and an ornament of fine golde.

¹³As the colde of the snowe in the time of haruest, so is a faithfull messenger to them that send him: for he refresheth the soule of his masters.

¹⁴A man that boasteth of false liberalitie, is like cloudes and winde without raine.

¹⁵A Prince is pacified by staying of anger, and a soft tongue breaketh the bones.

¹⁶If thou haue found hony, eate that is sufficient for thee, least thou be ouerfull, and vomit it.
