Proverbs 18:19-21

New Life Version

¹⁹ A brother who has been hurt in his spirit is harder to be won than a strong city, and arguing is like the iron gates of a king’s house.

²⁰ A man’s stomach will be filled with the fruit of his mouth. He will be filled with what his lips speak.

²¹ Death and life are in the power of the tongue, and those who love it will eat its fruit.
