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

²⁴ The proud and haughty man, scoffer is his name;
He worketh in the arrogance of pride.

⁴ The reward of humility and the fear of Jehovah
Is riches, and honor, and life.

²⁷ It is not good to eat much honey;
^[a]So for men to search out their own glory is grievous.

¹⁶ The sluggard is wiser in ^[a]his own conceit
Than seven men that can ^[b]render a reason.

² Let another man praise thee, and not thine own mouth;
A stranger, and not thine own lips.

²¹ The refining pot is for silver, and the furnace for gold;
And a man is tried by ^[a]his praise.

²³ A man’s pride shall bring him low;
But he that is of a lowly spirit shall obtain honor.
