American Standard Version of 1901
Versliste
A word {Or, in due season}fitly spokenIs like apples of gold in network of silver.
As {Or, a nose-ring}an ear-ring of gold, and an ornament of fine gold,So is a wise reprover upon an obedient ear.
As the cold of snow in the time of harvest,So is a faithful messenger to them that send him;For he refresheth the soul of his masters.
As clouds and wind without rain,So is he that boasteth himself {Hebrew: in a gift of falsehood.}of his gifts falsely.
