Proverbs 18:17-19
Living Bible
17 Any story sounds true until someone tells the other side and sets the record straight.
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.
