Proverbs 16:16-18

Legacy Standard Bible

¹⁶ How much ^(A)better it is to acquire wisdom than fine gold!
And to acquire understanding is to be chosen above silver.
¹⁷ The ^(B)highway of the upright is to turn away from evil;
He who guards his way keeps his ^[a]soul.
^18 (C)Pride goes before destruction,
And a haughty spirit before stumbling.
