Proverbs 6:16-19
New Living Translation
16 There are six things the Lord hates—
no, seven things he detests:
17 haughty eyes,
a lying tongue,
hands that kill the innocent,
18 a heart that plots evil,
feet that race to do wrong,
19 a false witness who pours out lies,
a person who sows discord in a family.
Proverbs 6:16-19
Common English Bible
16 There are six things that the Lord hates,
seven things detestable to him:
17 snobbish eyes,
a lying tongue,
hands that spill innocent blood,
18 a heart set on wicked plans,
feet that run quickly to evil,
19 a false witness who breathes lies,
and one who causes conflicts among relatives.
Proverbs 17:1
New Living Translation
17 Better a dry crust eaten in peace
than a house filled with feasting—and conflict.
Proverbs 17:1
Common English Bible
17 Better a dry crust with quiet
than a house full of feasting with quarrels.
Proverbs 18:18-19
New Living Translation
18 Flipping a coin[a] can end arguments;
it settles disputes between powerful opponents.
19 An offended friend is harder to win back than a fortified city.
Arguments separate friends like a gate locked with bars.

Proverbs 18:18-19
Common English Bible
18 The dice settle conflicts
and keep strong opponents apart.
19 An offended ally is more formidable than a city;
such quarreling is like the bars of a castle.
