⁴ A high look and a proud heart,
    the lamp of the wicked, is sin.

²⁴ The proud and arrogant man—“Scoffer” is his name—
    he works in the arrogance of pride.

⁴ The result of humility and the fear of Yahweh
    is wealth, honor, and life.

²⁷ It is not good to eat much honey,
    nor is it honorable to seek one’s own honor.

¹⁶ The sluggard is wiser in his own eyes
    than seven men who answer with discretion.

² Let another man praise you,
    and not your own mouth;
    a stranger, and not your own lips.

²¹ The crucible is for silver,
    and the furnace for gold;
    but man is refined by his praise.

²³ A man’s pride brings him low,
    but one of lowly spirit gains honor.
