8 Goe not foorth hastily to strife, least thou know not what to doe in the ende thereof, when thy neighbour hath put thee to shame.
9 Debate thy matter with thy neighbour, and discouer not the secret to another,
10 Least he that heareth it put thee to shame, and thine infamie doe not cease.
11 A word spoken in his place, is like apples of golde with pictures of siluer.
12 He that reprooueth the wise, and the obedient eare, is as a golden earering and an ornament of fine golde.
13 As 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.
