Proverbs 18:12


Proverbs 18:11 Proverbs 18:12 (KJV) Proverbs 18:13
The rich man's wealth [is] his strong city, and as an high wall in his own conceit.
Before destruction the heart of man is haughty, and before honour [is] humility.
He that answereth a matter before he heareth [it], it [is] folly and shame unto him.
