Proverbs 18:18-20
New Revised Standard Version Updated Edition
18 Casting the lot puts an end to disputes
and decides between powerful contenders.(A)
19 An ally offended is stronger than a city;[a]
such quarreling is like the bars of a castle.
20 From the fruit of the mouth one’s stomach is satisfied;
the yield of the lips brings satisfaction.(B)
