In context
8 Go not forth hastily to strive, lest [thou know not] what to do in the end thereof, when thy neighbor hath put thee to shame.
9 Debate thy cause with thy neighbor [himself]; and reveal not a secret to another:
10 Lest he that heareth [it] put thee to shame, and thy infamy turn not away.
11 A word fitly spoken [is like] apples of gold in pictures of silver.
12 [As] an ear-ring of gold, and an ornament of fine gold, [so is] a wise reprover upon an obedient ear.
13 As the cold of snow in the time of harvest, [so is] a faithful messenger to them that send him: for he refresheth the soul of his masters.
14 Whoever boasteth himself of a false gift [is like] clouds and wind without rain.
