Proverbs 26:21-23

Douay-Rheims 1899 American Edition

²¹ As coals are to burning coals, and wood to fire, so an angry man stirreth up strife.

²² The words of a talebearer are as it were simple, but they reach to the innermost parts of the belly.

²³ Swelling lips joined with a corrupt heart, are like an earthen vessel adorned with silver dross.
