21
As charcoal to hot embers and wood to fire, so is 1a quarrelsome man for kindling strife.
22
2The words of 3a whisperer are like delicious morsels; they go down into the inner parts of the body.
24
Whoever hates disguises himself with his lips and harbors deceit in his heart;
26
though his hatred be covered with deception, his wickedness will be exposed in the assembly.
27
8Whoever digs a pit will fall into it, and a stone will come back on him who starts it rolling.
28
A lying tongue hates its victims, and a flattering mouth works ruin.
