13  ^dThe fear of the Lord is ^ehatred of evil.

^fPride and arrogance and the way of evil

and ^gperverted speech I hate.

2  ^cWhen pride comes, then comes disgrace,

but with ^dthe humble is wisdom.

10  ^fBy insolence comes nothing but strife,

but with those who take advice is wisdom.

18  ^mPride goes before destruction,

and a haughty spirit before a fall.

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  ^cHaughty eyes and a proud heart,

^dthe lamp¹ of the wicked, are sin.

24  ^f“Scoffer” is the name of the arrogant, haughty man

who acts with arrogant pride.

4  The reward for humility and fear of the Lord

is ^triches and honor and life.¹

12  Do you see a man who is ^jwise in his own eyes?

^kThere is more hope for a fool than for him.

23  ^eOne’s pride will bring him low,

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

32  If you have been foolish, exalting yourself,

or if you have been devising evil,

^eput your hand on your mouth.
