21[As] coals are to hot embers, and wood to fire, So is a contentious man to inflame strife.

22The words of a whisperer are as dainty morsels, And they go down into the innermost parts.

23Fervent lips and a wicked heart Are [like] an earthen vessel overlaid with silver dross.

24He that hateth dissembleth with his lips; But he layeth up deceit within him:

25When he speaketh fair, believe him not; For there are seven abominations in his heart:

26Though [his] hatred cover itself with guile, His wickedness shall be openly showed before the assembly.

27Whoso diggeth a pit shall fall therein; And he that rolleth a stone, it shall return upon him.
