Proverbes 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).

Proverbes 26:22 In-Context

20 Faute de bois, le feu s'éteint; Et quand il n'y a point de rapporteur, la querelle s'apaise.
21 Le charbon produit un brasier, et le bois du feu; Ainsi un homme querelleur échauffe une dispute.
22 Les paroles du rapporteur sont comme des friandises, Elles descendent jusqu'au fond des entrailles.
23 Comme des scories d'argent appliquées sur un vase de terre, Ainsi sont des lèvres brûlantes et un coeur mauvais.
24 Par ses lèvres celui qui hait se déguise, Et il met au dedans de lui la tromperie.
