Proverbs 10:13-15

Wycliffe Bible

¹³ Wisdom is found in the lips of a wise man; and a rod in the back of him that is needy of heart. (Wisdom is found on the lips of the wise; and a rod on the back of him who is foolish.)

¹⁴ Wise men hide knowing (The wise store up knowledge); but the mouth of a fool is next to confusion.

¹⁵ The chattel of a rich man is the city of his strength; the dread of poor men is the neediness of them. (The substance of a rich man is his strong city; the fear of the poor is their own neediness.)
