Mishle 16:17-19

Orthodox Jewish Bible

¹⁷ The mesilat yesharim (highway of the upright) is to depart from rah; he that guards his derech is shomer over his nefesh (soul).

¹⁸ Ga’on (pride) goeth before shever (destruction), and a ruach of haughtiness before a fall.

¹⁹ Better it is to be of a humble ruach among the anayim, than to divide the plunder with the proud.
