Proverbs 18:17-19
Christian Standard Bible

17 The first to state his case seems right
until another comes and cross-examines him.(A)

18 Casting the lot(B) ends quarrels
and separates powerful opponents.

19 An offended brother is harder to reach[a]
than a fortified city,
and quarrels are like the bars of a fortress.
