Proverbs 18

16 Ref A man's offering makes room for him, letting him come before great men.

17 Ref The man who first puts his cause before the judge seems to be in the right; but then his neighbour comes and puts his cause in its true light.

18 Ref The decision of chance puts an end to argument, parting the strong.

19 Ref A brother wounded is like a strong town, and violent acts are like a locked tower.

20 Ref With the fruit of a man's mouth his stomach will be full; the produce of his lips will be his in full measure.

21 Ref Death and life are in the power of the tongue; and those to whom it is dear will have its fruit for their food.

22 Ref Whoever gets a wife gets a good thing, and has the approval of the Lord.

23 Ref The poor man makes requests for grace, but the man of wealth gives a rough answer.

24 Ref There are friends who may be a man's destruction, but there is a lover who keeps nearer than a brother.
