Proverbs 18:18-20

Revised Standard Version Catholic Edition

¹⁸ The lot puts an end to disputes
    and decides between powerful contenders.
¹⁹ A brother helped is like a strong city,^[a]
    but quarreling is like the bars of a castle.
²⁰ From the fruit of his mouth a man is satisfied;
    he is satisfied by the yield of his lips.
