Proverbs 13:10-12
1599 Geneva Bible
10 Only by pride [a]doth man make contention: but with the well-advised is wisdom.
11 The [b]riches of vanity shall diminish: but he that gathereth with [c]the hand, shall increase them.
12 The hope that is deferred, is the fainting of the heart, but when the desire cometh, it is as a tree of life.
