Proverbs 26:21-23
New Living Translation
21 A quarrelsome person starts fights
as easily as hot embers light charcoal or fire lights wood.
22 Rumors are dainty morsels
that sink deep into one’s heart.
23 Smooth[a] words may hide a wicked heart,
just as a pretty glaze covers a clay pot.

- 26:23 As in Greek version; Hebrew reads Burning.
