Proverbs 18:12

How To Avoid Fools And Foolishness

¹¹ The rich man's wealth is his strong city, And as a high wall in his own imagination. ¹² Before destruction the heart of man is haughty; And before honor goeth humility. ¹³ He that giveth answer before he heareth, It is folly and shame unto him.
