A brother offended is harder to be won than a strong city: and their contentions are like the bars of a castle.
17He that is first in his own cause seemeth just; but his neighbour cometh and searcheth him.
18The lot causeth contentions to cease, and parteth between the mighty.
19A brother offended is harder to be won than a strong city: and their contentions are like the bars of a castle.
21Death and life are in the power of the tongue: and they that love it shall eat the fruit thereof.
