Proverbs 26:18
Berean Standard Bible (BSB)
Like a madman shooting firebrands and deadly arrows,
In context
16 The slacker is wiser in his own eyes than seven men who answer discreetly.
17 Like one who grabs a dog by the ears is a passerby who meddles in a quarrel not his own.
18 Like a madman shooting firebrands and deadly arrows,
19 so is the man who deceives his neighbor and says, “I was only joking!”
20 Without wood, a fire goes out; without gossip, a conflict ceases.
