Proverbs 16:18-20
New King James Version
18 Pride goes before destruction,
And a haughty spirit before [a]a fall.
19 Better to be of a humble spirit with the lowly,
Than to divide the [b]spoil with the proud.
20 He who heeds the word wisely will find good,
And whoever (A)trusts in the Lord, happy is he.
