Proverbs 16:18-20

Lexham English Bible

¹⁸ Before destruction comes pride,
    and before a fall, a haughty spirit.^[a]
19 Better a lowly spirit with the poor
    than dividing the spoil with the proud.
²⁰ He who is attentive to a matter will find goodness,
    and he who trusts in Yahweh, his own happiness.
