Proverbs 18:13 BBE

¹¹  The property of a man of wealth is his strong town, and it is as a high wall in the thoughts of his heart.

¹²  Before destruction the heart of man is full of pride, and before honour goes a gentle spirit.

¹³  To give an answer before hearing is a foolish thing and a cause of shame.

¹⁴  The spirit of a man will be his support when he is ill; but how may a broken spirit be lifted up?

¹⁵  The heart of the man of good sense gets knowledge; the ear of the wise is searching for knowledge.
