Proverbs Chapter 18

18:4
The words of a man's mouth are as deep waters, and the wellspring of wisdom as a flowing brook.

18:6-7
A fool's lips enter into contention, and his mouth calleth for strokes.
A fool's mouth is his destruction, and his lips are the snare of his soul.

18:10
The name of the Lord is a strong tower: the righteous runneth into it, and is safe.

18:14
The spirit of a man will sustain his infirmity; but a wounded spirit who can bear?

18:19
A brother offended is harder to be won than a strong city: and their contentions are like the bars of a castle.

18:21
Death and life are in the power of the tongue: and they that love it shall eat the fruit thereof.

18:23-24
The poor useth intreaties; but the rich answereth roughly.
A man that hath friends must shew himself friendly: and there is a friend that sticketh closer than a brother.
