is like apples of gold in settings of silver.

Proverbs 25:11

American Standard Version

¹¹A word ^[a]fitly spoken
Is like apples of gold in network of silver.

¹⁵By patience a ruler is persuaded.
A soft tongue breaks the bone.

¹⁵By long forbearing is a ^[a]ruler persuaded,
And a soft tongue breaketh the bone.

²⁵Like cold water to a thirsty soul,
so is good news from a far country.

²⁵As cold waters to a ^[a]thirsty soul,
So is good news from a far country.
