As an earring of gold, and an ornament of fine gold, so is a wise reprover upon an obedient ear.
10Lest he that heareth it put thee to shame, and thine infamy turn not away.
11A word fitly spoken is like apples of gold in pictures of silver.
12As an earring of gold, and an ornament of fine gold, so is a wise reprover upon an obedient ear.
14Whoso boasteth himself of a false gift is like clouds and wind without rain.
