Proverbs 18:17

New International Reader's Version

In court, the first one to speak seems right. Then someone else comes forward and questions him.

See the chapter Copy

Potiphar’s wife told him, “That’s how your slave treated me.” When Joseph’s master heard her story, he became very angry.

To answer before listening is foolish and shameful.

A gift opens the door and helps the giver meet important people.

Casting lots will put a stop to arguing. It will keep the strongest enemies apart.
