Proverbs 18:18-20

Easy-to-Read Version

¹⁸ The best way to settle an argument between two powerful people may be to use lots.

¹⁹ An insulted brother is harder to win back than a city with strong walls. Arguments separate people like the strong bars of a palace gate.

²⁰ Your words can be as satisfying as fruit, as pleasing as the food that fills your stomach.
