Proverbs 16:16-18

EasyEnglish Bible

¹⁶ It is better to have wisdom than gold or silver.
    You should want to understand what is right.
¹⁷ Honest people follow a straight road that keeps them away from evil things.
    If you want to keep your life safe, watch where you are going.
¹⁸ If you are proud, you will soon come to an end.
    Anyone who boasts will soon fall down.
