Proverbi 26:22 Meaning and Commentary

Proverbs 26:22

The words of a talebearer [are] as wounds, and they go down
into the innermost parts of the belly.
] These expressions are the same with those in ( Proverbs 18:8 ) ; and are here repeated, as being found along with others by the men of Hezekiah, ( Proverbs 25:1 ) ; as some others likewise are; and also because of the importance of them; and to impress the minds of men with a sense of the evil of such a practice, that they may shun it, and avoid those that are given to it. (See Gill on Proverbs 18:8).

Proverbi 26:22 In-Context

20 Il fuoco si spegne, quando mancano legne; Così le contese si acquetano, quando non vi son rapportatori.
21 Il carbone è per far brace, e le legne per far fuoco; E l’uomo rissoso per accender contese.
22 Le parole del rapportatore paiono lusinghevoli; Ma scendono fin dentro al ventre.
23 Le labbra ardenti, e il cuor malvagio, Son come schiuma d’argento impiastrata sopra un testo.
24 Chi odia s’infinge nel suo parlare, Ma cova la frode nel suo interiore;
