Proverbs 18:17

WYC

NIV

17 A just man is the first accuser of himself; his friend cometh, and shall search him. (He who is the first to speak for a cause seemeth right; but then his opponent shall come, and shall search him out.)
17 In a lawsuit the first to speak seems right, until someone comes forward and cross-examines.
