20. Like one who takes away a garment on a cold day,or like vinegar poured on a wound,is one who sings songs to a heavy heart.
21. If your enemy is hungry, give him food to eat;if he is thirsty, give him water to drink.
22. In doing this, you will heap burning coals on his head,and the Lord will reward you.
23. Like a north wind that brings unexpected rainis a sly tongue – which provokes a horrified look.
24. Better to live on a corner of the roofthan share a house with a quarrelsome wife.
25. Like cold water to a weary soulis good news from a distant land.
