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.

Verse 13 is found in chapter 25 of Proverbs. The first part advises against rushing to bring a dispute before authority without first considering it carefully. Direct and private correction protects the relationship better than revealing secrets. The images of a word spoken at the right time and a faithful messenger present wise communication as something precious. Patience can also persuade a ruler, showing that the strength of a word does not depend solely on volume or pressure.

Wie die Kühle des Schnees zur Zeit der Ernte, so ist ein treuer Bote dem, der ihn gesandt hat, und labt seines Herrn Seele.
Como frío de nieve en tiempo de la siega, Así es el mensajero fiel a los que lo envían: Pues al alma de su señor da refrigerio.
Como frescura de nieve en tiempo de cosecha es el mensajero fiel para quienes lo envían: reanima el alma de sus señores.
Comme la fraîcheur de la neige au temps de la moisson, Ainsi est un messager fidèle pour celui qui l'envoie; Il restaure l'âme de son maître.
Il messo fedele è, a quelli che lo mandano, Come il fresco della neve in giorno di ricolta; E ristora l’anima de’ suoi padroni
Como o frio da neve no tempo da sega, assim é o mensageiro fiel para com os que o enviam; porque refresca a alma dos seus senhores.
忠信的使者對那差他的人, 就如收割時有冰雪的涼氣, 使主人的心舒暢。
