Proverbs 18:10-17 The LORD is like a strong tower; those who do right can run to him for safety. Rich people trust their wealth to protect them. They think it is like the high walls of a city. Proud people will be ruin | New Century Version (NCV)

Proverbs 18:10-17 NCV

The LORD is like a strong tower; those who do right can run to him for safety. Rich people trust their wealth to protect them. They think it is like the high walls of a city. Proud people will be ruined, but the humble will be honored. Anyone who answers without listening is foolish and confused. The will to live can get you through sickness, but no one can live with a broken spirit. The mind of a person with understanding gets knowledge; the wise person listens to learn more. Taking gifts to important people will help get you in to see them. The person who tells one side of a story seems right, until someone else comes and asks questions.
