Proverbs 18:19-21

American Standard Version

¹⁹ A brother ^[a]offended is harder to be won than a strong city;
And such contentions are like the bars of a castle.
²⁰ A man’s belly shall be filled with the fruit of his mouth;
With the increase of his lips shall he be satisfied.
²¹ Death and life are in the power of the tongue;
And they that love it shall eat the fruit thereof.
