Proverbs 26:20

Without wood, a fire goes out; without gossip, a conflict ceases.

Where no wood is, there the fire goeth out: so where there is no talebearer, the strife ceaseth.

Note Where no…: Heb. Without wood

Note talebearer: or, whisperer

Note ceaseth: Heb. is silent

For lack of wood a fire goes out. Without gossip, a quarrel dies down.

For lack of wood the fire goeth out; And where there is no whisperer, contention ceaseth.
