Proverbs 10:13-15

Evangelical Heritage Version

¹³ Wisdom is found on the lips of a discerning person,
but a rod is appropriate for the back of one who lacks sense.
¹⁴ Wise people store up knowledge,
but the mouth of a stubborn fool brings ruin.
¹⁵ A rich person’s wealth is his strong city.
Poverty is the ruin of poor people.
