Proverbs 26:21

WYC

NIV

21 As dead coals at quick coals, and trees at the fire [As dead coals to quick coals, and wood to fire]; so a wrathful man (that) raiseth chidings. (Like dead coals to burning coals, and wood to fire, is an angry person who raiseth up arguments, or strife.)
21 As charcoal to embers and as wood to fire, so is a quarrelsome person for kindling strife.
