Proverbs 26:21-23
New Revised Standard Version Catholic Edition
21 As charcoal is to hot embers and wood to fire,
so is a quarrelsome person for kindling strife.
22 The words of a whisperer are like delicious morsels;
they go down into the inner parts of the body.
23 Like the glaze[a] covering an earthen vessel
are smooth[b] lips with an evil heart.
