Proverbs 18:16-20

¹⁶A mans gift enlargeth him, and leadeth him before great men.

¹⁷He that is first in his owne cause, is iust: then commeth his neighbour, and maketh inquirie of him.

¹⁸The lot causeth contentions to cease, and maketh a partition among the mightie.

¹⁹A brother offended is harder to winne then a strong citie, and their contentions are like the barre of a palace.

²⁰With the fruite of a mans mouth shall his belly be satisfied, and with the increase of his lips shall he be filled.
