Proverbs 25:12-14

¹²In an earring of gold a precious sardius is also set; So is a wise word to an obedient ear.

¹³As a fall of snow in the time of harvest is good against heat, So a faithful messenger refreshes those that send him; For he helps the souls of his employers.

¹⁴As winds and clouds and rains are most evident objects, So is he that boasts of a false gift.
