Some translations of Proverbs 25:11 say a word fitly spoken is like apples of gold in settings of silver. There’s only one word different. Which do you prefer?
Just like knowing which exact words are best, I had a few goes to get the best effect here.
But whichever one you prefer, I think the result is beautiful.
More Proverbs
Proverbs 18:21 in the Easy English translation says Words are able to save life and cause death. So you must accept the result of what you say.
Let’s look at a few more proverbs:
Pro 10:19 In other words don’t say too much. Don’t be a blabbermouth, and ‘Loose lips sink ships!’
Pro 15:1 Sometimes it’s best to just shut up.
Pro 15:26
Pro 16:24
Pro 23:9
