Yet ^(B)He gives grace to the humble.

But with the meek is wisdom.

¹⁵ The ^(A)way of an ignorant fool is right in his own eyes,
But a wise man is he who listens to counsel.

But he who keeps reproof is prudent.

³³ The ^[a]fear of Yahweh is the discipline ^[b]leading to wisdom,
And before glory comes humility.

¹⁹ It is better to be ^(A)humble in spirit with the lowly
Than to ^(B)divide the spoil with the proud.

^12 (A)Before destruction the heart of man is haughty,
But ^(B)humility goes before glory.

²³ A man’s ^(A)lofty pride will bring him low,
But a ^(B)lowly spirit will take hold of glory.
