Proverbs 26:18

The sluggard buries his hand in the dish.

He is too lazy to bring it back to his mouth.

The sluggard is wiser in his own eyes

than seven men who answer with discretion.

Like one who grabs a dog’s ears

is one who passes by and meddles in a quarrel not his own.

is the man who deceives his neighbor and says, “Am I not joking?”

For lack of wood a fire goes out.

Without gossip, a quarrel dies down.

As coals are to hot embers,

and wood to fire,

so is a contentious man to kindling strife.
