Proverbs 18:17-19
Good News Translation
17 The first person to speak in court always seems right until his opponent begins to question him.
18 If two powerful people are opposing each other in court, casting lots can settle the issue.
19 Help your relatives and they will protect you like a strong city wall,[a] but if you quarrel with them, they will close their doors to you.
