Proverbs 26:24

As coals are to hot embers,

and wood to fire,

so is a contentious man to kindling strife.

The words of a whisperer are as dainty morsels,

they go down into the innermost parts.

Like silver dross on an earthen vessel

are the lips of a fervent one with an evil heart.

When his speech is charming, don’t believe him,

for there are seven abominations in his heart.

His malice may be concealed by deception,

but his wickedness will be exposed in the assembly.

Whoever digs a pit shall fall into it.

Whoever rolls a stone, it will come back on him.
