Proverbs 26:20-23

20For lackH369 of woodH6086 the fireH784 goeth outH784: and where there is noH369 whisperer, contentionH4066 ceaseth.

21As coalsH1513 are to hotH1513 embersH1513, and woodH6086 to fireH784; so is a contentiousH4066 manH376 to inflame strifeH7379.

22The wordsH1697 of a whisperer are as daintyH3859 morselsH3859, and they goH3381 downH3381 intoH3381 the innermostH2315 partsH2315 of the bellyH990.

23FerventH1814 lipsH8193 and a wickedH7451 heartH3820 are like an earthenH2789 vesselH2789 overlaidH6823 with silverH3701 drossH5509.
