20:026:016 The sluggard is wiser in his own conceit than seven men that can render a reason.
20:026:017 He that passeth by, and meddleth with strife belonging not to him, is like one that taketh a dog by the ears.
20:026:018 As a mad man who casteth firebrands, arrows, and death,
20:026:019 So is the man that deceiveth his neighbour, and saith, Am not I in sport?
20:026:020 Where no wood is, there the fire goeth out: so where there is no talebearer, the strife ceaseth.
20:026:021 As coals are to burning coals, and wood to fire; so is a contentious man to kindle strife.
20:026:022 The words of a talebearer are as wounds, and they go down into the innermost parts of the belly.
20:026:023 Burning lips and a wicked heart are like a potsherd covered with silver dross.
20:026:024 He that hateth dissembleth with his lips, and layeth up deceit within him;
20:026:025 When he speaketh fair, believe him not: for there are seven abominations in his heart.
