11 Like apples of gold in settings of silverIs a (A)word spoken in [a]right circumstances.
11 A word spoken at the right timeis like gold apples on a silver tray.[a](A)
15 (A)When one is slow to anger, a ruler may be persuaded,And a soft tongue breaks the bone.
15 A ruler can be persuaded through patience,and a gentle tongue can break a bone.(A)
25 Like cold water to a weary soul,So is a (A)good report from a distant land.
25 Good news from a distant landis like cold water to a parched throat.[a](A)
