In context
15 The sluggard burieth his hand in the dish, he is too lazy to bring it back to his mouth.
16 Wiser is the sluggard in his own eyes, than, seven persons, who can answer with judgment.
17 As he who layeth hold of the ears of a dog, is a passer-by, who giveth vent to his wrath over a quarrel, not his!
18 As a madman throwing firebrands, arrows and death,
19 So, is a man who deceiveth his neighbour, and saith, Was not, I, in sport?
20 Without wood a fire is quenched, and, where there is no tattler, strife is hushed.
21 Black coal to burning blocks, and wood to fire, so is a contentious man, for kindling strife.
