| 20 | With the end of the wood, the fire is quenched, and without one whispering, strife quiets down. | For lack of wood the fire goes out, and where there is no whisperer, quarreling ceases. | Without wood a fire goes out; without a gossip a quarrel dies down. | |
| 21 | Charcoal to burning coals, and wood to a fire, so is a man of quarrels to kindle strife. | As charcoal to hot embers and wood to fire, so is a quarrelsome man for kindling strife. | As charcoal to embers and as wood to fire, so is a quarrelsome person for kindling strife. | |
