16A man's gift maketh room for him, and before great men will it lead him.
17He that is first in his cause seemeth just; but when his neighbor cometh, then will it be investigated.
18The lot causeth disputes to cease, and it decideth between the mighty.
19A brother offended is harder to be won than a strong town; and quarrels among brothers are like the bars of a castle.
20From the fruit of a man's mouth is his body satisfied; with the product of his lips doth he satisfy himself.
