20And one that looseth his garment in cold weather. As vinegar upon nitre, so is he that singeth songs to a very evil heart. As a moth doth by a garment, and a worm by the wood: so the sadness of a man consumeth the heart.
21If thy enemy be hungry, give him to eat: if he thirst, give him water to drink:
22For thou shalt heap hot coals upon his head, and the Lord will reward thee.
23The north wind driveth away rain, as doth a sad countenance a backbiting tongue.
24It is better to sit in a corner of the housetop, than with a brawling woman, and in a common house.
