Proverbs 25:9-11

Douay-Rheims 1899 American Edition

⁹ Treat thy cause with thy friend, and discover not the secret to a stranger:

¹⁰ Lest he insult over thee, when he hath heard it, and cease not to upbraid thee. Grace and friendship deliver a man: keep these for thyself, lest thou fall under reproach.

¹¹ To speak a word in due time, is like apples of gold on beds of silver.
