Proverbs 16:17-19

Good News Translation

¹⁷ Those who are good travel a road that avoids evil; so watch where you are going—it may save your life.

¹⁸ Pride leads to destruction, and arrogance to downfall.

¹⁹ It is better to be humble and stay poor than to be one of the arrogant and get a share of their loot.
