Argue your case with your neighbor, And do not reveal the secret of another,

Or one who hears it will put you to shame, And the evil report about you will not pass away.

Like apples of gold in settings of silver, Is a word spoken at the proper time.

Like an earring of gold and a jewelry piece of fine gold, Is a wise person who offers rebukes to a listening ear.
