Proverbs 26:20-22

EasyEnglish Bible

²⁰ Without wood, a fire stops burning.
    When people do not tell their friends' secrets, quarrels stop.
²¹ But when a fire has wood, it continues to burn.
    When people love to quarrel, there will always be arguments.
²² We love to hear other people's secrets.
    They seem like good food that we can really enjoy.
