## Proverbs 25:10 in Context (Verses 7–13 KJV)
 
 [7 ](/kjv/proverbs/25/7) For better *it is* that it be said unto thee, Come up hither; than that thou shouldest be put lower in the presence of the prince whom thine eyes have seen.
 
 [8 ](/kjv/proverbs/25/8) Go not forth hastily to strive, lest *thou know not* what to do in the end thereof, when thy neighbour hath put thee to shame.
 
 [9 ](/kjv/proverbs/25/9) Debate thy cause with thy neighbour *himself;* and discover not a secret to another:*
 
 [10 ](/kjv/proverbs/25/10) Lest he that heareth *it* put thee to shame, and thine infamy turn not away.
 
 [11 ](/kjv/proverbs/25/11) A word fitly spoken *is like* apples of gold in pictures of silver.*
 
 [12 ](/kjv/proverbs/25/12) *As* an earring of gold, and an ornament of fine gold, *so is* a wise reprover upon an obedient ear.
 
 [13 ](/kjv/proverbs/25/13) As the cold of snow in the time of harvest, *so is* a faithful messenger to them that send him: for he refresheth the soul of his masters.
 
[Proverbs 24](/kjv/proverbs/24) [Proverbs 26](/kjv/proverbs/26)
