For lack of wood the fire goes out, and where there is no whisperer, quarreling ceases.
And the tongue is a fire, a world of unrighteousness. The tongue is set among our members, staining the whole body, setting on fire the entire course of life, and set on fire by hell.
Drive out a scoffer, and strife will go out, and quarreling and abuse will cease.
A dishonest man spreads strife, and a whisperer separates close friends.
The words of a whisperer are like delicious morsels; they go down into the inner parts of the body.
