Can a man take fire in his bosom, and his clothes not be burned?

An ungodly man digs up evil: and in his lips there is as a burning fire.

For you shall heap coals of fire upon his head, and the LORD shall reward you.

For lack of wood the fire goeth out; And where there is no whisperer, contention ceaseth.

As coals are to hot embers, and wood to fire, So is a contentious man to inflame strife.

Sheol; and the barren womb; The earth that is not satisfied with water; And the fire that saith not, Enough.

The heating-pot is for silver and the oven-fire for gold, and a man is measured by what he is praised for.

Because of the sin of the land, its troubles are increased; but by a man of wisdom and knowledge they will be put out like a fire.

The heating-pot is for silver and the oven-fire for gold, but the Lord is the tester of hearts.
