Proverbs 18:18-20
1599 Geneva Bible
18 The lot [a]causeth contentions to cease, and [b]maketh a partition among the mighty.
19 A brother offended is harder to win than a strong city, and their contentions are like the [c]bar of a palace.
20 With the fruit of a man’s mouth shall his belly be satisfied, and with the increase of his lips shall he be filled.
