Proverbs 26:20-22

Legacy Standard Bible

²⁰ With no wood the fire goes out,
And where there is no ^(A)whisperer, ^(B)strife quiets down.
²¹ Like charcoal to hot embers and wood to fire,
So is a ^(C)contentious man to kindle strife.
²² The ^(D)words of a whisperer are like dainty morsels,
And they go down into the innermost parts of the stomach.
