'Conceit' in the Bible

The rich man’s wealth is his strong city,And like a high wall [of protection] in his own imagination and conceit.

Answer [and correct the erroneous concepts of] a fool according to his folly,Otherwise he will be wise in his own eyes [if he thinks you agree with him].

The lazy person is wiser in his own eyesThan seven [sensible] men who can give a discreet answer.

The rich man [who is conceited and relies on his wealth instead of God] is wise in his own eyes,But the poor man who has understanding [because he relies on God] is able to see through him.
