Proverbs 25:11


Proverbs 25:10 Proverbs 25:11 (KJV) Proverbs 25:12
Lest he that heareth [it] put thee to shame, and thine infamy turn not away.
A word fitly spoken [is like] apples of gold in pictures of silver.
[As] an earring of gold, and an ornament of fine gold, [so is] a wise reprover upon an obedient ear.
