Proverbs 16:16-20

How much better it is to get wisdom than gold! And to get understanding is to be chosen above silver.

The highway of the upright is to turn away from evil; One who watches his way protects his life.

Pride goes before destruction, And a haughty spirit before stumbling.

It is better to be humble in spirit with the needy Than to divide the spoils with the proud.

One who pays attention to the word will find good, And blessed is one who trusts in the Lord.
