Proverbs 6:27

King James 2000

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

See the chapter Copy

Even so the tongue is a little member, and boasts great things. Behold, how great a forest a little fire kindles!

For by means of a harlot a man is reduced to a piece of bread: and the adulteress will prey upon his precious life.

Can one go upon hot coals, and his feet not be burned?
