Like a madman shooting firebrands, arrows and death,
In context
16The sluggard is wiser in his own eyes than seven men who answer with good sense. 17Like grabbing a passing dog by the ears is a man who flares up over a quarrel that is not his. 18Like a madman shooting firebrands, arrows and death, 19so is the man who deceives his neighbor and says, “I was only joking.” 20Without wood a fire goes out, and where there is no whisperer, strife dies down.
