Proverbs 18:16-24

A man's
<0120>
gift
<04976>
maketh room
<07337> (8686)
for him, and bringeth
<05148> (8686)
him before
<06440>
great men
<01419>_.
[He that is] first
<07223>
in his own cause
<07379>
[seemeth] just
<06662>_;
but his neighbour
<07453>
cometh
<0935> (8804) (8675) <0935> (8799)
and searcheth
<02713> (8804)
him.
The lot
<01486>
causeth contentions
<04079>
to cease
<07673> (8686)_,
and parteth
<06504> (8686)
between the mighty
<06099>_.
A brother
<0251>
offended
<06586> (8737)
[is harder to be won] than a strong
<05797>
city
<07151>_:
and [their] contentions
<04079> (8675) <04066>
[are] like the bars
<01280>
of a castle
<0759>_.
A man's
<0376>
belly
<0990>
shall be satisfied
<07646> (8799)
with the fruit
<06529>
of his mouth
<06310>_;
[and] with the increase
<08393>
of his lips
<08193>
shall he be filled
<07646> (8799)_.
Death
<04194>
and life
<02416>
[are] in the power
<03027>
of the tongue
<03956>_:
and they that love
<0157> (8802)
it shall eat
<0398> (8799)
the fruit
<06529>
thereof.
[Whoso] findeth
<04672> (8804)
a wife
<0802>
findeth
<04672> (8804)
a good
<02896>
[thing], and obtaineth
<06329> (8686)
favour
<07522>
of the LORD
<03068>_.
The poor
<07326> (8802)
useth
<01696> (8762)
intreaties
<08469>_;
but the rich
<06223>
answereth
<06030> (8799)
roughly
<05794>_.
A man
<0376>
[that hath] friends
<07453>
must shew himself friendly
<07489> (8710)_:
and there is
<03426>
a friend
<0157> (8802)
[that] sticketh closer
<01695>
than a brother
<0251>_.
