Proverbs 26:20-22
Young's Literal Translation
YLT
New International Version
NIV
20
Without wood is fire going out, And without a tale-bearer, contention ceaseth,
20
Without wood a fire goes out; without a gossip a quarrel dies down.
21
Coal to burning coals, and wood to fire, And a man of contentions to kindle strife.
21
As charcoal to embers and as wood to fire, so is a quarrelsome person for kindling strife.
22
The words of a tale-bearer [are] as self-inflicted wounds, And they have gone down [to] the inner parts of the heart.
22
The words of a gossip are like choice morsels; they go down to the inmost parts.
