Without wood a fire goes out; without a gossip a quarrel dies down.

For lack of wood the fire goes out, and where there is no whisperer, quarreling ceases.

Fire goes out without wood, and quarrels disappear when gossip stops.

Without wood, fire goes out; without a gossip, conflict dies down.

Where no wood is, there the fire goeth out: So where there is no talebearer, the strife ceaseth.

Where there is no wood, the fire goes out; And where there is no talebearer, strife ceases.

When you run out of wood, the fire goes out; when the gossip ends, the quarrel dies down.

For lack of wood the fire goes out, And where there is no gossiper, quarreling quiets down.

For lack of wood the fire goes out, And where there is no whisperer [who gossips], contention quiets down.

Where there is no wood, a fire goes out, and where there is no gossip, contention ceases.
