Proverbs 25:13-16

¹³As the cold of snow in the time of harvest, So is a faithful messenger to them that send him; For he refresheth the spirit of his masters.

¹⁴As clouds and wind without rain, So is the man that boasteth falsely of giving.

¹⁵By long forbearing is a prince appeased; And a soft tongue breaketh bones.

¹⁶Hast thou found honey? eat what is sufficient for thee, Lest thou be surfeited with it, and vomit it up.
