Proverbs 18:19
Berean Standard Bible
An offended brother is harder to win than a fortified city, and disputes are like the bars of a castle.
Context
17The first to state his case seems right
until another comes and cross-examines him. 18Casting the lot ends quarrels
and separates strong opponents. 19An offended brother is harder to win than a fortified city,
and disputes are like the bars of a castle. 20From the fruit of his mouth a man’s belly is filled;
with the harvest from his lips he is satisfied. 21Life and death are in the power of the tongue,
and those who love it will eat its fruit.
