'Stops' in the Bible

A father's ruin is a foolish son, and a wife's quarreling is like dripping water that never stops.

Whoever shuts his ears at the cry of the poorWill cry out himself and not be answered.

Like one who grabs a dog by the ears [and is likely to be bitten]Is he who, passing by, stops to meddle with a dispute that is none of his business.

Without wood, the fire goes out. Without a gossip, contention stops.
