Like apples of gold in settings of silver is a ruling rightly given.

Proverbs 25:1-28

It is the glory of God to conceal a matterto search out a matter is the glory of kings.

As the heavens are high and the earth is deepso the hearts of kings are unsearchable.

remove wicked officials from the king’s presenceand his throne will be established through righteousness.

it is better for him to say to you, “Come up here, than for him to humiliate you before his nobles.

What you have seen with your eyes do not bring hastily to court, for what will you do in the end if your neighbor puts you to shame?

Like apples of gold in settings of silver is a ruling rightly given.  Like an earring of gold or an ornament of fine gold is the rebuke of a wise judge to a listening ear. <-->Like clouds and wind without rain is one who boasts of gifts never given.

If your enemy is hungry, give him food to eatif he is thirsty, give him water to drink. In doing this, you will heap burning coals on his head, and the Lord will reward you.

Like a muddied spring or a polluted well are the righteous who give way to the wicked. It is not good to eat too much honey,  nor is it honorable to search out matters that are too deep

Why?

King's consideration is different from ours.

Do not try to come to the king or nobles, it is to insult yourself.

Sometimes what we see might be not the truth.=ovely person. 

This is real love to love our enemy. The Lord will reward us, we do it not for human beings' reward.

Even good friends or good things don't do it too much, it may have worse feedback.

How?

To live like a normal man and do the right things as the Bible told us.
