Proverbs 16:19-21

Expanded Bible

¹⁹ It is better to be humble and ·be with those who suffer [with the needy]
than ·to share stolen property [dividing plunder/spoil] with the proud.

²⁰ Whoever ·listens to what is taught [has insight] will ·succeed [prosper],
and whoever trusts the Lord will be ·happy [blessed].

²¹ The wise of heart ·are known for their [^Lwill be called] understanding.
Their ·pleasant [sweet] words ·make them better teachers [enhance their teaching].
