Proverbs 18:18-23 World Messianic Bible (WMB)

18. The lot settles disputes,and keeps strong ones apart.

19. A brother offended is more difficult than a fortified city;and disputes are like the bars of a fortress.

20. A man’s stomach is filled with the fruit of his mouth.With the harvest of his lips he is satisfied.

21. Death and life are in the power of the tongue;those who love it will eat its fruit.

22. Whoever finds a wife finds a good thing,and obtains favor of the Lord.

23. The poor plead for mercy,but the rich answer harshly.
