Proverbs 26:19-21
Amplified Bible
19
So is the man who deceives his neighbor (acquaintance, friend)
And then says, “Was I not joking?”(A)
20
For lack of wood the fire goes out,
And where there is no whisperer [who gossips], contention quiets down.
21
Like charcoal to hot embers and wood to fire,
So is a contentious man to kindle strife.(B)
