Proverbs 18:17

Catholic Public Domain Version

The just is the first accuser of himself; his friend arrives and shall investigate him.

See the chapter Copy

His lord, upon hearing these things, and having excessive trust in the words of his mate, was very angry.

Whoever responds before he listens, demonstrates himself to be foolish and deserving of confusion.

A man's gift expands his way and makes space for him before leaders.

Casting a lot suppresses contentions and passes judgment, even among the powerful.
