Proverbs 26:21-23

Darby Translation

²¹ [As] coals for hot coals, and wood for fire, so is a contentious man to inflame strife.

²² The words of a talebearer are as dainty morsels, and they go down into the innermost parts of the belly.

²³ Ardent lips, and a wicked heart, are [as] an earthen vessel overlaid with silver dross.
