20With much wood fire increases; But where there is not a double-minded man, strife ceases.
21A hearth for coals, and wood for fire; And a railing man for the tumult of strife.
22The words of cunning knaves are soft; But they smite even to the inmost parts of the bowels.
23Silver dishonestly given is to be considered as a potsherd: Smooth lips cover a grievous heart.
24A weeping enemy promises all things with his lips, But in his heart he contrives deceit.
25Though thine enemy entreat thee with a loud voice, consent not: For there are seven abominations in his heart.
