Proverbs 25:10-12
Revised Standard Version Catholic Edition
10 lest he who hears you bring shame upon you,
and your ill repute have no end.
11 A word fitly spoken
is like apples of gold in a setting of silver.
12 Like a gold ring or an ornament of gold
is a wise reprover to a listening ear.
Proverbs 25:10-12
New International Version
10 or the one who hears it may shame you
and the charge against you will stand.
