Proverbs 25:9-12
New American Standard Bible
Chapter 25
9
Argue your case with your neighbor,
And do not reveal the secret of another,
10
Or one who hears
it
will put you to shame,
And the evil report about you will not pass away.
11
Like
apples of gold in settings of silver,
Is a word spoken at the proper time.
12
Like
an earring of gold and a jewelry piece of fine gold,
Is a wise person who offers rebukes to a listening ear.
King James Version
Chapter 25
9
Debate thy cause with thy neighbour himself; and discover not a secret to another:
10
Lest he that heareth it put thee to shame, and thine infamy turn not away.
11
A word fitly spoken is like apples of gold in pictures of silver.
12
As an earring of gold, and an ornament of fine gold, so is a wise reprover upon an obedient ear.
Christian Standard Bible
Chapter 25
9
Make your case with your opponent
without revealing another’s secret;
10
otherwise, the one who hears will disgrace you,
and you’ll never live it down.
11
A word spoken at the right time
is like gold apples in silver settings.
12
A wise correction to a receptive ear
is like a gold ring or an ornament of gold.
New Living Translation
Chapter 25
9
When arguing with your neighbor,
don’t betray another person’s secret.
10
Others may accuse you of gossip,
and you will never regain your good reputation.
11
Timely advice is lovely,
like golden apples in a silver basket.
12
To one who listens, valid criticism
is like a gold earring or other gold jewelry.
English Standard Version
Chapter 25
9
Argue your case with your neighbor himself,
and do not reveal another 's secret,
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.
New International Version
Chapter 25
9
If you take your neighbor to court,
do not betray another’s confidence,
10
or the one who hears it may shame you
and the charge against you will stand.
11
Like apples of gold in settings of silver
is a ruling rightly given.
12
Like an earring of gold or an ornament of fine gold
is the rebuke of a wise judge to a listening ear.
New King James Version
Chapter 25
9
Debate your case with your neighbor,
And do not disclose the secret to another;
10
Lest he who hears
it
expose your shame,
And your reputation be ruined.
11
A word fitly spoken
is like
apples of gold
In settings of silver.
12
Like
an earring of gold and an ornament of fine gold
Is
a wise rebuker to an obedient ear.
