“for you will heap coals of fire on his head,and Yahweh will reward you.”
Proverbs 25:22 (WEB)
Context Reading
20As one who takes away a garment in cold weather,or vinegar on soda,so is one who sings songs to a heavy heart. 21If your enemy is hungry, give him food to eat.If he is thirsty, give him water to drink; 22for you will heap coals of fire on his head,and Yahweh will reward you. 23The north wind produces rain;so a backbiting tongue brings an angry face. 24It is better to dwell in the corner of the housetopthan to share a house with a contentious woman.
