પ્રસંગને અનુસરીને બોલેલો શબ્દ ચાંદીની ટોપલીમાંનાં સોનાનાં સફરજન જેવો છે.
हिन्दीनीतिवचन २५:११
जैसे चाँदी की टोकरियों में सोने के सेब हों, वैसे ही ठीक समय पर कहा हुआ वचन होता है।

In context

9Debate your case with your neighbor, and don’t betray the confidence of another,

10lest one who hears it put you to shame, and your bad reputation never depart.

11A word fitly spoken is like apples of gold in settings of silver.

12As an earring of gold, and an ornament of fine gold, so is a wise reprover to an obedient ear.

13As the cold of snow in the time of harvest, so is a faithful messenger to those who send him; for he refreshes the soul of his masters.
