Proverbs 16:16-20 (New International Version)

 ¹⁶ How much better to get wisdom than gold,
       to choose understanding rather than silver!

 ¹⁷ The highway of the upright avoids evil;
       he who guards his way guards his life.

 ¹⁸ Pride goes before destruction,
       a haughty spirit before a fall.

 ¹⁹ Better to be lowly in spirit and among the oppressed
       than to share plunder with the proud.

 ²⁰ Whoever gives heed to instruction prospers,
       and blessed is he who trusts in the LORD.
