Proverbs 26:21-23 Good News Bible Anglicised (GNBDC)

21. Charcoal keeps the embers glowing, wood keeps the fire burning, and troublemakers keep arguments alive.

22. Gossip is so tasty! How we love to swallow it!

23. Insincere talk that hides what you are really thinking is like a fine glaze on a cheap clay pot.
