| 18:17 | He that is first in his own cause seemeth just; but his neighbour cometh and searcheth him. | 
| 18:18 | The lot causeth contentions to cease, and parteth between the mighty. | 
| 18:19 | A brother offended is harder to be won than a strong city: and their contentions are like the bars of a castle. | 
| 18:20 | A man's belly shall be satisfied with the fruit of his mouth; and with the increase of his lips shall he be filled. | 
| 18:21 | Death and life are in the power of the tongue: and they that love it shall eat the fruit thereof. | 
| 18:22 | Whoso findeth a wife findeth a good thing, and obtaineth favour of the LORD. |
