Proverbs 25:12-14
International Standard Version
12 Like a gold earring and a necklace of pure gold
is a wise reprover to a listening ear.
13 Like cold snow during harvest time
is a faithful messenger to those who send him;
he refreshes his masters.
14 Like clouds and winds without rain
is the man who brags
about gifts he never gave.
Proverbs 25:12-14
New International Version
12 Like an earring of gold or an ornament of fine gold
is the rebuke of a wise judge to a listening ear.(A)
13 Like a snow-cooled drink at harvest time
is a trustworthy messenger to the one who sends him;
he refreshes the spirit of his master.(B)
14 Like clouds and wind without rain
is one who boasts of gifts never given.
