Proverbs 18:17
Thomson 1808
A just man accuseth himself first; but if he attack, his adversary is refuted.

A righteous man accuses himself at the beginning of his speech, but when he has entered upon the attack, the adversary is reproved.
Greek · Brenton
Δίκαιος ἑαυτοῦ κατήγορος ἐν πρωτολογίᾳ, ὡς δʼ ἂν ἐπιβάλῃ ὁ ἀντίδικος ἐλέγχεται.
