<01697>
[it], it [is] folly
<0200>
<0200>
and shame
<03639>
unto him. {answereth...: Heb. returneth a word}<03639>
[He that is] first
<07223>
<07223>
in his own cause
<07379>
<07379>
[seemeth] just
<06662>_;
<06662>_;
but his neighbour
<07453>
him.<07453>
A brother
<0251>
<0251>
[is harder to be won] than a strong
<05797>
<05797>
city
<07151>_:
<07151>_:
[are] like the bars
<01280>
<01280>
of a castle

A man's
<0376>
<0376>
belly
<0990>
<0990>
with the fruit
<06529>
<06529>
of his mouth
<06310>_;
<06310>_;
[and] with the increase
<08393>
<08393>
of his lips
<08193>
<08193>
Death
<04194>
<04194>
and life
<02416>
<02416>
[are] in the power
<03027>
<03027>
of the tongue
<03956>_:
<03956>_:
the fruit
<06529>
thereof.<06529>
