Proverbs 25:10-12
New Catholic Bible
10 for fear your listener will reproach you
and your reputation will be irretrievably damaged.[a]
11 Like apples of gold inlaid with silver
are words that are aptly spoken.
12 Like a gold ring or a necklace of fine gold
is a wise man’s rebuke to an attentive ear.
