Proverbs 6:27

King James Version (Oxford) 1769

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 boasteth great things. Behold, how great a matter a little fire kindleth!

For by means of a whorish woman a man is brought to a piece of bread: And the adulteress will hunt for the precious life.

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