The north wind brings forth rain; and a backbiting tongue, angry looks.
Out of the north comes golden splendor; God is clothed with terrible majesty.
From its chamber comes the whirlwind, and cold from the scattering winds.
Him who slanders his neighbor secretly I will destroy. The man of haughty looks and arrogant heart I will not endure.
who does not slander with his tongue, and does no evil to his friend, nor takes up a reproach against his neighbor;
they impiously mocked more and more, gnashing at me with their teeth.
For lack of wood the fire goes out; and where there is no whisperer, quarreling ceases.
slanderers, haters of God, insolent, haughty, boastful, inventors of evil, disobedient to parents,
For I fear that perhaps I may come and find you not what I wish, and that you may find me not what you wish; that perhaps there may be quarreling, jealousy, anger, selfishness, slander, gossip, conceit, and disorder.
