Proverbs 25:23

Ord og taleKonflikt og forsoning

21 If your enemy is hungry, give him food to eat, and if he is thirsty, give him water to drink.

22 For in so doing, you will heap burning coals on his head, and the LORD will reward you.

As the north wind brings forth rain, so a backbiting tongue brings angry looks.

24 Better to live on a corner of the roof than to share a house with a quarrelsome wife.

25 Like cold water to a weary soul is good news from a distant land.
