Proverbs 25:13-15
Douay-Rheims 1899 American Edition
13 As the cold of snow in the time of harvest, so is a faithful messenger to him that sent him, for he refresheth his soul.
14 As clouds, and wind, when no rain followeth, so is the man that boasteth, and doth not fulfill his promises.
15 By patience a prince shall be appeased, and a soft tongue shall break hardness.

Proverbs 25:13-15
New International Version
13 Like a snow-cooled drink at harvest time
is a trustworthy messenger to the one who sends him;
he refreshes the spirit of his master.(A)
14 Like clouds and wind without rain
is one who boasts of gifts never given.
