Proverbs 25:13-15

Revised Standard Version

¹³Like the cold of snow in the time of harvest
    is a faithful messenger to those who send him,
    he refreshes the spirit of his masters.
¹⁴Like clouds and wind without rain
    is a man who boasts of a gift he does not give.

¹⁵With patience a ruler may be persuaded,
and a soft tongue will break a bone.
