Proverbs 18:18-20

Living Bible

¹⁸ A coin toss^[a] ends arguments and settles disputes between powerful opponents.

¹⁹ It is harder to win back the friendship of an offended brother than to capture a fortified city.^[b] His anger shuts you out like iron bars.

²⁰ Ability to give wise advice satisfies like a good meal!
