Proverbs 21:30-22:6

Revised Standard Version

³⁰ No wisdom, no understanding, no counsel,
    can avail against the Lord.
³¹ The horse is made ready for the day of battle,
    but the victory belongs to the Lord.
22 A good name is to be chosen rather than great riches,
    and favor is better than silver or gold.
² The rich and the poor meet together;
    the Lord is the maker of them all.
³ A prudent man sees danger and hides himself;
    but the simple go on, and suffer for it.
⁴ The reward for humility and fear of the Lord
    is riches and honor and life.
⁵ Thorns and snares are in the way of the perverse;
    he who guards himself will keep far from them.
⁶ Train up a child in the way he should go,
    and when he is old he will not depart from it.
