Proverbs 26:20-22
20Where there is no wood, a fire goes out, and where there is no gossip, contention ceases.
21Like charcoal is to burning coals, and wood to fire, so is a contentious person to kindle strife.
22The words of a gossip are like delicious morsels; they go down into a person’s innermost being.
