Proverbs 16:19


Proverbs 16:18 Proverbs 16:19 (KJV) Proverbs 16:20
Pride [goeth] before destruction, and an haughty spirit before a fall.
Better [it is to be] of an humble spirit with the lowly, than to divide the spoil with the proud.
He that handleth a matter wisely shall find good: and whoso trusteth in the LORD, happy [is] he.
