Proverbs 25:13-16

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.

¹⁵In long-suffering is prosperity to kings, And a soft tongue breaks the bones.

¹⁶Having found honey, eat only what is enough, Lest haply thou be filled, and vomit it up.
