Ecclesiasticus 28:11

Ecclesiasticus 28:11 Context

⁹A sinfull man disquieteth friends, and maketh debate among them that be at peace. ¹⁰As the matter of the fire is, so it burneth: and as a mans strength is, so is his wrath, and according to his riches his anger riseth, and the stronger they are which contend, the more they will be inflamed. ¹¹An hastie contention kindleth a fire, and an hasty fighting sheddeth blood. ¹²If thou blow the sparke, it shall burne: if thou spit vpon it, it shall bee quenched, and both these come out of thy mouth. ¹³Curse the whisperer, and double tongued: for such haue destroyed many that were at peace.
