Proverbs 25:13-15

21st Century King James Version

¹³ As the cold of snow at the time of harvest, so is a faithful messenger to them that send him, for he refresheth the soul of his masters.

¹⁴ Whoso boasteth himself of his gifts falsely is like clouds and wind without rain.

¹⁵ By much forbearance is a prince persuaded, and a soft tongue breaketh the bone.
