34  Toward the ^cscorners he ^dis scornful,

^ebut to the humble he gives favor.¹

2  ^cWhen pride comes, then comes disgrace,

but with ^dthe humble is wisdom.

15  ^yThe way of a fool is right in his own eyes,

but a wise man listens to advice.

10  ^fBy insolence comes nothing but strife,

but with those who take advice is wisdom.

5  ^kA fool ^ldespises his father’s instruction,

but ^mwhoever heeds reproof is prudent.

33  ^jThe fear of the Lord is instruction in wisdom,

and ^khumility comes before honor.

19  ⁿIt is better to be of a lowly spirit with the poor

than to ^odivide the spoil with the proud.

12  ^mBefore destruction a man’s heart is haughty,

but ⁿhumility comes before honor.

4  The reward for humility and fear of the Lord

is ^triches and honor and life.¹

23  ^eOne’s pride will bring him low,

^fbut he who is lowly in spirit will obtain honor.
