"Scripture-block" today

Postby Pastor Gary » September 27th, 2008, 10:38 am

I think I am experiencing "Scripture-block" today; you know... there's this verse that talks about how when you hear one side of a matter it sounds right, but then you hear the opposing side, and THAT sounds right... but I just can't put my finger on the wording or cite the verse.

Anybody?

"For surely, O LORD, you bless the righteous;
you surround them with your favor as with a shield." (Psalm 5:12)

Like I said over at Acts, the first verse I think of is Proverbs 18:13.
Not sure if that's the one or not, but that's me best guess.

Proverbs 18:17
(NIV)
The first to present his case seems right,
till another comes forward and questions him.

NASB)
The first to plead his case seems right,
Until another comes and examines him.

(ESV)
The one who states his case first seems right,
until the other comes and examines him.

(NKJV)
The first one to plead his cause seems right,
Until his neighbor comes and examines him.

Thanks, Deb. That's the verse. I read all around it and couldn't put my finger on it.
