Proverbs 18:18-20

American Standard Version

¹⁸ The lot causeth contentions to cease,
And parteth between the mighty.
¹⁹ A brother ^[a]offended is harder to be won than a strong city;
And such contentions are like the bars of a castle.
²⁰ A man’s belly shall be filled with the fruit of his mouth;
With the increase of his lips shall he be satisfied.
