20 As he who takes away a garment in cold weather,
    and as vinegar on soda,
    so is he who sings songs to a heavy heart.

    and if he is thirsty, give him water to drink;
22 for you will heap coals of fire upon his head,
    and the Lord will reward you.

    and the Lord will reward you.(B)
