Proverbs 25:6 - 15

25:6 ¶ Put not forth thyself in the presence of the king, and stand not in the place of great men:
25:7 For better it is that it be said unto thee, Come up hither; than that thou shouldest be put lower in the presence of the prince whom thine eyes have seen.
25:8 ¶ Go not forth hastily to strive, lest thou know not what to do in the end thereof, when thy neighbour hath put thee to shame.
25:9 Debate thy cause with thy neighbour himself; and discover not a secret to another:
25:10 Lest he that heareth it put thee to shame, and thine infamy turn not away.
25:11 ¶ A word fitly spoken is like apples of gold in pictures of silver.
25:12 As an earring of gold, and an ornament of fine gold, so is a wise reprover upon an obedient ear.
25:13 ¶ 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.
25:14 ¶ Whoso boasteth himself of a false gift is like clouds and wind without rain.
25:15 ¶ By long forbearing is a prince persuaded, and a soft tongue breaketh the bone.
