Proverbs 25:11-13

New International Reader's Version

¹¹ The right ruling at the right time
    is like golden apples in silver jewelry.

¹² A wise judge’s warning to a listening ear
    is like a gold earring or jewelry made of fine gold.

¹³ A messenger trusted by the one who sends him
    is like a drink cooled by snow at harvest time.
    He renews the spirit of his master.
