9 Argue your argument with your neighbor himself, the secret of another do not disclose,
10 lest he who hears shame you and your ill repute will not end.
11 Apples of gold in a setting of silver is a matter spoken at its proper time.
12 A ring of gold and an ornament of fine gold is a rebuke of the wise to the ear of a listener.
13 Like the cold of snow on a day of harvest is a faithful messenger to those who send him, and the soul of his master is refreshed.
14 Like clouds and wind when there is no rain, so too is a man who boasts in a gift of deception.
15 With patience a ruler may be persuaded, and a soft tongue will break a bone.
