Proverbs 26:17-23
passing ...... over <05674> [passeth.]
passing ...... over <05674> [meddleth. or, is enraged.]
firebrands <02131> [firebrands. Heb. flames, or sparks. arrows.]
says <0559> [and.]
wood <0657 06086> [Where no wood is. Heb. Without wood. so.]
gossip <05372> [tale-bearer. or, whisperer. ceaseth. Heb. is silent.]
words <01697> [words.]
innermost being <02315> [innermost parts. Heb. chambers.]
That is, ardent professions of friendship from a wicked heart, however smooth, shining, and splendid they may appear, are like a vile vessel covered over with base metal.
