Proverbs 26:20-22

MSTC(i) 20 Where no wood is, there the fire goeth out; and where the backbiter is taken away, there the strife ceaseth. 21 Coals kindle heat, and wood the fire; even so doth a brawling fellow stir up variance. 22 A slanderer's words are like flattery, but they pierce the inward parts of the body.
