11 Like apples of gold in settings of silverIs a (A)word spoken in [a]right circumstances.
11 A word fitly spoken is like apples of gold in a setting of silver.(A)
15 (A)When one is slow to anger, a ruler may be persuaded,And a soft tongue breaks the bone.
15 With patience a ruler may be persuaded, and a soft tongue can break bones.(A)
25 Like cold water to a weary soul,So is a (A)good report from a distant land.
25 Like cold water to a thirsty soul, so is good news from a far country.(A)
