Proverbs 25:24

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

²³ As the north wind brings forth rain, so a backbiting tongue brings angry looks.

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.

²⁶ Like a muddied spring or a polluted well is a righteous man who gives way to the wicked.

Do read the surrounding verses too, because the context often says more than a single verse.
