Proverbs 26:19 in Context — Proverbs 26

17 Aquele que, enquanto está passando, [se envolve] em briga que não é sua, é [como] o que pega um cão pelas orelhas.

18 Como o louco que lança faíscas, flechas e coisas mortíferas,

19 Assim é o homem que engana a seu próximo, e diz: Não estava eu [só] brincando?

20 Sem lenha, o fogo se apaga; e sem fofoqueiro, a briga termina.

21 O carvão é para as brasas, e a lenha para o fogo; e o homem difamador para acender brigas.
